So many that really stand out...

The Velvet Underground: Who could forget that banana cover.
Grace Jones: Slave to the Rythym
Pink Floyd: Wish you were here
Jimi Hendrix: Electric Ladyland. Hubba Hubba! Twisted Evil
Madness: One step Beyond

But if I have to pick one it'll be
Fleetwood Mac: Rumours.

I think it's simple and stylish.

I also thinks it captures the playfull essence of the band...

Or maybe it's just because Stevie looked Hot... who knows Wink

I remember when it first came out in vinyl, the middle square, had a very thin layer of reflective mirror like plastic.
