50. King Crimson: ‘In The Court of King Crimson’ - The longer you stare at the cover to ‘In The Court Of King Crimson,’ the more emotions seem to seep out of it. Painted by computer programmer Barry Godber, the picture was the only painting he ever painted. Yet, it’s one that will be remembered forever.

A capa de in utero do Nirvana é uma das melhores!

Poor list, some great covers and some really boring ones...such as all the beatles covers. Four guys walking across a crosswalk? really how interesting is that unless you are an absolutely obsessed beatles fan, why not feature the cover of the ’white’ album..i am sure beatles heads can tell you how genius it is...

As voted for by the writers and staff. That says it all. Could you have picked a more predictable top 20?

Where the hell is "Aqualung" by Jethro Tull, or "Rio" by Duran Duran? Way better covers than all the Beatles covers.

No Tool albums?!?!? Didnt know that Eddie is the Iron Maiden mascot??!?! Pfft poor list and poorly written. Get a real job you talentless clown.

terrible list, all the covers look boring and ugly

‘Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band’ is, by far, the best of all the covers shown here. It is also the most conceptual and elaborated. Look for the intention of the artist on the internet(and the beatles themselves) for this cover. And it is fair to say : I hate the beatles, but not this cover.

They should have had T.Rex's Electric Warrior on this list... Seems to be more of a popularity contest among bands rather than contest of covers.

Not only is Nevermind the best album cover, it's also the best album ever!!!
~ by Austin 6/15/2009
"Who's Next" isn't in the top 50?
~ by Gooch 7/25/2009
1 per Page ? WTF?
