This is not exactly the front cover... (just inside the cover).
Great song & album!

Great thread. How could anyone forget:

Despite the fact that Hendrix himself was totally dissatisfied with the cover, I really love it. Hendrix asked artist to give it an "Indian" feel (relating to his partial Native American ancestry), and they gave it, literally, an Indian theme. Regardless, I like it. Psychedelic.

Some of the Moody Blues covers were pretty artistic.

I have to say most cover art that i enjoy now is Vinyl. Something so nice about the format, it's size and materiality :)

CDs can be done well though most of the time it's just a plastic case with a pretty picture in it :(

I met a guy many, many years ago who told me if you lined up all of MB's covers in the order in which they were released, you could see the story of creation. Personally, I thought the guy was fried. Anyway, the only one I have is Question of Balance.

This is the first Sugar Ray CD,which is their best, as it went downhill from there, featuring former Charles In Charge and Baywatch hottie Nicole Eggert.


I've never seen this cover before, but now it's my very favorite.
