The guy on the cover is Nick, wearing a race driver's suit and some kind of odd helmet. Hilariously, the breast was airbrushed blue when they printed that photo in the newspaper recently.

I'd say DSotM just for the B/W photo.

I'd say WYWH for that awesome 'burning' man shaking hands.

But there's something about the P.U.L.S.E. "eye" that gets me going...

Re: coolest album cover?

I like the simple ones. Close between Atom Heart Mother and Dark Side of the Moon. A Collection of Great Dance Songs is also cool. Why hasn't anyone said The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn?

Piper is neat but it isn't quite in the same boat as all the other ones.

Actually, I just found out that while it is Nick's outfit, standing in for Mr. Mason is Bill Thorgerson, Storm's son.

I've always been partial to that one too.

Too bad the album itself was only re-heated leftovers.

Re: coolest album cover?

Yes, it does have the whiff of 'contractual obligations' about it.

And the cover stinks.
