Most Iconic Album Covers

I was thinkin' about the Dead -- I like their album covers, but they're not generally iconic. That was my original thought, but, upon reflection, this one is pretty iconic
Not a great record, but the cover art graphic became something of an icon in and of itself.
Album wise, I am rather partial to these two. Both covers are -- striking -- and are both very much of their time ('specially aoxomoxoa), but probably only really "iconic" to a Deadhead.

extra points for the latter since the calligraphy may be alternatively read as "American Reality". Oh wow, man -- heavy! -
