Seeing this at a Zody's department store in 1977 is why I still listen to rock.

I like the idea. AIC had simliar one but the dog had tree legs.
The melvins- Houdini



Looks like one of Salvator Dali surreal work. Perfect choice of colors. Just perfect work.
Pink Floyd- Echoes


Not easy to put as much colors and get them look well together. I love the infinity of details in the psychedelic art.

 Can't post pics on my Tab, but would someone be so kind as to post Circus of Power's Magic & Madness and Brutal Truth's Sounds of the Animal Kingdom?

This one does not count since it was never released.
They had a black album way before Metallica did.

Pink Floyd's A collection of great dance songs:



They hit that shot at exactly the right second of the day, with the dimming light, the blue sky, the abandoned pioneer hut and the barren landscape.

I could stare at this album cover all day.

I sorta agree.

Maybe not top 20 for me, but damn good. Among the best of 80s Hair, for sure.

Scatter brained thinking is a problem here. I've noticed that.

I was a sophomore, got Holy Diver and Power and the Glory (Saxon) on cassette that year. First metal I ever owned, and I played them both until they broke.
