Iconic albums maybe.  I’m not sure why the covers are outstanding. 

 

Covers of outstanding albums, or outstanding album covers?

Ain’t the English language wonderful?

Yeah... I will go with iconic.

 

So many to choose from... But stopped short of the 80s/90s... I guess CDs too small??

 

Yet, iconic, no Poco? (Phil Hatman, thought would have gotten a nod)

I think its because we've seen them all thousands of times... the younger generation (earbud generation) probably hasn't seen 10 of them. And you're right, for the most part these are just outstanding albums. There is other good artwork out there... Jasper Wrath from 1971 for example, up close its some guys sitting a cave. Set it across the room and its a monster face:

If you asked how much more black this could be the answer is none, none more black.

I believe their album "Shark Sandwich" received merely a two word review: "**** sandwich."
