Maybe we should have a separate new thread for album art? I agree with you, the album art is much more important to me then the physical CD art.

However, I'm surprised at your number 1 choice for album art. I personally think the album art of Secret Samadhi is another reason that album did so poorly and led to the mass exodus of US fans. (The unpronouncable name being it's biggest flaw, the cover you sometimes have to tilt to see what it is, otherwise it's black.... not even getting into its audio content).

I don't think that the color of the album made a difference. The black album for Metallica sold very well and it looked very similar.

I think it had more to do with the lack of radio music on the album.

You got me on a technicality there. No question the album was a little too dark for its own good (and hence the mass exodus of fans) and the mystery is why the band thought they could ditch Harrison.....


And in my opinion, it is their best album and one of THE best albums out there. This is exactly the type of music I love. You don't have to agree with me.

The intent was not to shut down the other thread, but to bring back old thoughts on the topic for people to see.

TDTH may look gorgeous, but TC wins for it's overall complex nature and visual appeal. You just don't know what to expect from the album art, but you know you're in for one hell of a ride. I also like the booklet's pictures as well. I would've never known Otter Creek was a real place!
