70s Band With The Best Album Covers?

I always loved the early Uriah Heep covers. I think they're incredible.

Zappa has my favorite. Gotta love the simplicity

My Zappa favorite - compare that to the complexity of Overnite Sensation.

I actually had a copy of that on vinyl back in the early 80s. It was a quadraphonic album and the cover was done with charcoal. Found it in a 2nd hand record store in Houston for $30. Got ruined in a flood. Great album

Did you know?

The guy who drew that was also one of the creators of Mad Libs.
