VU - VU and Nico

New Order - Power Corruption and Lies

Ah yes, London Calling and VU and Nico. Great art and great albums. I also like the cover of the first one you posted, although I haven't heard the band.

Roger later caught pneumonia after sitting in the tub of chilled beans during the shoot.

The imagery of London Calling is powerful indeed. Although a blurred image, they had to use it anyway. The concept behind it's design is also interesting.

Enshrined for all eternity.

Ah you should give its a listen; Holes, Goddess on a highway or Opus 40 should give you an idea.

Album Cover and the title even reflect the mood of the album, its my favourite album to fall asleep to. Sweeping, beautiful, understated, dusty. It uses a Theremin at various points (what they used on the old sci fi films in the 50's to get the earie warbling sound) and then disolves into silent night, its a real one off.

I'll give the other 2 albums a go you posted. Generally respect your tastes on here

I don't want to look at your ******* balls!

Ahem, perhaps you should fix that hotlinked image? Just that one?

But my favorite album EVER, and also the best artwork:

 

[Peter Lorre]

Wow, damn it -_-. Unfortunately, it's too late for me to be able to edit it out. Maybe a mod can?

Roger Dean. Amazing artist.. I regret passing up on that LP when I saw it in an antique mall a while back.
Mine would be Relayer, also my favourite album.
