Storm Thogerson is a genius and yes I absolutely love that cover too. But (and I'm sorry to get technical) wasn't the Animals cover Roger's idea? Storm's original idea for Animals was the kid seeing his parents having sex, which..... i dunno didn't quite have the same effect as Battersea Power Station

I suppose it was still Storm who took the photos and got it to look the way it did so kudos to him for that, but it wasn't all him on that one.
