ALBUM COVER ART

[Uncle Joe]

I have a room just off the den that I call my Music Room. It's where I store all my old LP's, my CD Racks, Music Books, Memorobilia, Stereo Equip., etc.

I'v always wanted to decorate the walls of the room in framed Classic Rock Album Covers.

It looks like I may finally be able to do so. I need some suggestions...with pics if possible.

I already have about 40 covers that I want to use. I'll name a few to give you an idea:

Layla, Derek And The Dominos

Aja, SteelyDan

Breakfast In America, Supertramp

Down To The Ground, Joy Of Cooking

Sild Degrees, Boz Scaggs

After Bathing At Baxters, Jefferson Airplane

Tea For The Tillerman, Cat Stevens

ElDorado,ELO

A few by Yes..

Anyway, you get the idea.

Any suggestions?

Thank you!

Sgt.Peppers of course-The Beatles

Breakfast In America-Supertramp

I've always preferred Crime Of The Century

Most of the Beatles main albums had classic covers. Like Abbey Road :

King Crimson's In The Court of the Crimson King :

Led Zeppelin's albums had pretty cool covers like the one on their debut:

Also the obvious major bands like Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones and The Who had some interesting covers.

Almost any Boston album has a great cover.

I could go on forever, but here's some suggestions:

[boingobaby]

Nice display. Man I must be old, I remember most of those!

[cosmosis]

How's this one for classic?

btw, that's Paul's replacement.

[_Annabelle_]

What on earth were they thinking with that?

Not classic but unforgettable at least ::.

Oh and I've heard that's Paul's body parts all over them.

[Uncle Joe]

Lots of great ones there....thanks!

Hmm. Someone started a thread just like this a while back. Can't remember who it was though. I think it was that Dave Gilmour guy.. hmm..

[cosmosis]

Keep em coming.

Here are a few more...

[cosmosis]

From Genesis To Revelation. Too big to post.

I have a room like that in my basement (well not yet, but I'm working on it). Mostly I have Aerosmith, Journey, Bad Company, The Rolling Stones, The Who, etc. I took the origional "case" that the record came in, since the records are in awful condition and my both record players broke, I'm making a wallpaper out of old albums.

I can't get images to load so I'd suggest (I made a mini collage of some of the albums I see here for my lyrics binder):

Rush- Moving Pictures

ELP- Brain Salad Surgery

Dream Theater- A Change of Seasons

The Rolling Stones- Voodoo Lounge

The Beatles- Abbey Road

I remember that, DG. It was just a month ago.

Again, I'll recommend a visit to the Tralfaz Archives album cover art gallery. It's filled with Classics, nostalgia and oddities.

[cosmosis]

well the one Gilmour started was about favorite covers while this one about covers to hang on the wall... maybe there's not much of a difference...

anyways, I see this one hanging on my wall

and Abbey Road and Bazzoka's avatar.

[bazooka]

When I got the Axis: Bold As Love CD

I was bummed because the cover looked like this

but ( hey cool ) if you fold the cover piece around inside-out,

you get the genuine trippy original album art.

[bazooka]

A couple more.

[bazooka]

Keep em coming.

OK

[MarcM]

The Mentors-Rock Bible

[Joel17592]

The Spanish cover of Sticky Fingers.

Oh Yeah....one of my all time favorites, which I had forgotten...thank you! These are all great. Well, not all...but most. I'm very appreciative.
