This is quite difficult but I think the ones I like most are Jazz - Simple but very affective. News Of The World - Great Concept and use of Kelly Freas(sp?) Picture. Innuendo - The Granville Pictures were great. Loved the whole sequence of album and single covers for this album, except for the Headlong single sleeve. Always wondered why they opted for a band pic with blue background for that one and did not go for another Granville sketch. Not really complaining but would have been good to keep to the white background/Grandville picture format for all the singles. I can understand why they did not use one for Bo Rhap/Days of our Lives but why not Headlong. Anyway going off subject a bit now, so I'd better stop.

Hard to say. Queen II, obviously, is good, but it is blurred round the edges, which spoils it for me, but the one on my poster isn't lol. I think The Miracle is a great one, but it took me a while to get into, like the album itself. I like the cover for Fun In Space, it's really good. But my favourite Queen album cover is AKOM, with the wee cartoon Queen. It took me a while to work out that it was Queen, but it's a good one, always makes me smile.
This can't end well.

OUCH... tough decision! It's a toss-up between Queen II and News of the World. If I had to choose I think I'd go with NOTW.

I'm just a musical prostitute my dear!

always overlooked, with QII and ANATO and ADATR and NOTW always overshadowing it, and yet terrific for its time Live Killers

Queen II and A Night at the Opera probably have the best covers. Queen II because of the iconic photograph (I mean, even Tenacious D has done a parody of it) and A Night at the Opera because of the beauty of the art and the fact that it became the band's logo.
This is what you wanted, this is what you're going to get.

Queen. I really like it. It just puts me in this place - this state of mind - that the other covers really fail to do. And it seems to fit the music inside. It's really brilliant, if you ask me.
Creativity can always cover for a lack of knowledge.

The Miracle- superb in its representation of a mature, united band.

I think headlong was a track that didn't suit the grangeur of that artwork- a gritty performance-based rock song. And after the IGSM video , they may have needed a picture to demonstrate that everything was alright with Fred's health.
