Directors Album Cover Art: A Tournament (1 Viewer)

[Angelo.M]

Disraeli Gears and Season of Glass are tied at 6. Wish You Were Here edges Music from Big Pink, 7-5.

I'm breaking the tie for Season of Glass. I agree w/ Rain completely. And I would have voted for Big Pink.

These are two of the best covers of the tournament .

Next match-up coming soon...

[Chris Moe]

That is not the cover to mothers milk

Here is a better version


My votes

While neither one really does anything for me in the first round I am going with

Ladies and Gentlemen We are Floating in Space

Round two is a tough call but I am going to have to give it to

Mothers Milk

 

[Angelo.M]

Chris:

Thanks for the pic. I know mine is not the cover (it's the cover to the albums' sheet music, I think) but it doesn't differ substantially.

 

[Zen Butler]

A Hard Day's Night
Mother's Milk

 

[Brook K]

A Hard Day's Night easily

Neither of the other two does anything for me but I'll vote for The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway.

 

[MartinTeller]

Well, I'm going with my two nominees:

Spiritualized - Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space
Genesis - The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway


To fully appreciate the Spiritualized cover, you really need to see the whole thing. The entire case & booklet are designed to look like a pharmaceutical package. It's very clever and well-done. The disc looks like a tablet, and even the tray art looks the foil that usually covers a package of pills.

 

[SteveGon]

Spiritualized - Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space
Genesis - The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway

Tough choices.

 

[Rain]

A Hard Days Night (I see nothing special about the other one)
The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway

 

[george kaplan]

A Hard Day's Night

Mother's Milk

 

[Jim_K]

Abstain - There's nothing special about either of these.

Mother's Milk

 

[John C. Wilson]

A Hard Day's Night
Mother's Milk

 

[MartinTeller]

Well, for all you folks who say there's nothing special, I wish you could see the whole package. Alas, I can't find scans of it anywhere online.

I guess there's not much hope of beating the almighty Beatles anyway.

 

[Angelo.M]

A Hard Day's Night gets by Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space, 5-3.

Mother's Milk pulls out a close one against The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, 5-4.

I would have voted for both of the losing albums.

 

[Angelo.M]
