Ha! Another useless poll! I really like those the best. What album has the best artwork in your opinion? Multiple choice is possible! |

I got the same response when I voted for Rubber Soul. I've always like that cover best. It was particularly nice hearing Paul tell how it all came about in Anthology. |

I voted for Abbey Road, Revolver, Sgt. Pepper, White Album, Beatles For Sale & With The Beatles since it was multiple choice & doesn't work for some reason. |

SGT PEPPER IS VOTED NATION'S FAVOURITE ALBUM COVER
The Beatles' "Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band" album sleeve has been voted number one in a new survey. The poll commissioned by Brandedmedia, a CD and DVD replication specialist, asked people across the UK to rate their top three CD album covers. Pink Floyds' "Dark Side of the Moon" was voted into a close second place.
The results threw up some interesting results about the respondees, both men and women chose The Beatles and Pink Floyd as their number one and number two sleeves respectively. The differences occur from the third choice, whilst men elected the classic Rolling Stones' "Sticky Fingers" sleeve artwork, women takin part in the survey plumped for a more contemporary option – Scissor Sisters’ eponymous debut.
The result of Sgt. Pepper at number one is unanimous across age groups 35-65 and over, but for the 25-34 year olds, Dark Side of the Moon just pips Sgt. Pepper to the post as first choice.
The nation's Top five favourite album sleeves are:
1. Beatles – Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band
2. Pink Floyd – Dark Side of the Moon
3. Rolling Stones – Sticky Fingers
4. Scissor Sisters – Scissors Sisters
5. Mike Oldfield – Tubular Bells |

My vote's for Revolver. Second is Rubber Soul. Given that the two albums could be volume one and volume two anyway, it's no big surprise. You really need the LP to appreciate the cover - you could look at it every day for a month, go away and come back in a year and see something in the collage that you never saw before. It's amazing. I also like the job Klaus did on the three Anthology covers and the subsequent "box" packaging. That was very cool also.  (Oh and by the way, the voting worked for me) |

I can't believe I'm still the only voter for Beatles For Sale. It's a classic bit of Robert Freeman photography Clearly portraying the downbeat mood of the album. Great stuff, and their first gatefold! |

I feel your pain, BlueMeanie! Yet they had many good album covers, just as they had many good albums. Drat this slavish adherence to quality! But it's good fun to pick one. (I picked Rubber Soul; just love the colors and the shapes of their faces.) |

I tried to make my multiple choice and I did it - so my voice(s) for Abbey Road, Sgt. Pep & Let It Be.
I just like the composition and the sunshine feeling I get when looking at the AR cover (not to mention the funny story with Paul walking barefoot and eyes closed that made so many people feed theit "Paul is dead" theory). Sgt. Pep is just a masterpiece of artwork and was an incontestable phenomenon when it appeared at that time. |

Abbey Road is my faovrite album and I think that the artwork was a novelty with no title and the back cover is cool as well. I vote for that. |

To be honest, they're all good. Which is saying something for a lot of 60's covers.
Theen again, Let It Be is pretty ordinary. |

The White Album. Seriously, it's so avant-garde and when taken in context of it's impact, it was such an out there idea for a cover. |

Coming after something like Sgt. Pepper. The album with the fanciest cover and longest title, to The Beatles, with a plain white cover. Brilliant idea. |

I voted for Sgt. Pepper's and Revolver. My favorite Beatle shirt I own is my white Revolver one, because the artwork just makes it a unique shirt. Sgt. Pepper is just genius, and very memorable. |
