Well done Alexandros.
Out of curiosity, how fast was the correct answer submitted?
No offense Blake, but I think you misspoke, probably just an oversight. You put RATM's self titled album at number eight, when it clearly ranks as one of the better albums, if not the best.
Wow fantastic research on album cover. Well done! Sojournposse agrees Led Zep should be no.1 spot. Look forward to more cool posts from you.
The correct answers were submitted last Friday.
As for the subjective rankings, to each his own.
No way The Smiths Nº2!!!
Move them to the top
They used to pick frames from movies for their sleeves.
In the queen is dead is Alain Delon (L'Insoumis) or in the This charming man ep´s there´s a frame from Cocteau´s Orphee.
Just to name a couple.
The picture choose by rage against should keep uncrop. It would be much stronger i think.
I just find your blog via David Salomon flickr´s.
