Exile On Main Street (Best Album Sleeve)

Jumpin' Jack Flash (Best 7" Sleeve)

I'll bet most people's favourite sleeves are simply their favourite albums as well. The cover reminds one of the songs

I force myself into not thinking about the "music"....though the connection between music and artwork may still have an impact...I think Black & Blue and Love You Live are among the best ones; when it comes to artwork
....oh yes, Between The Buttons, as well

1976, when Black $ Blue was release , in the music shop windows you can't see nothing else that great (artwork)

Sticky Fingers and Get your yas yas.. And yes thats my two "darlings"!!

cheers Bo

I like the satin sleeves they have on Satanic

December's Children...a fave of mine

personally the only album i think have really bad artwork are goats head soup and still life

There are some I don't like IORR and Bigger Bang and a few more

__________________________

Best: Satanic Majesties 3-D with Beatle faces, Exile, Sticky Fingers, Some Girls

Worst: No Security, IORR, B&B. Emotional Rescue is not very good.

I know someone who took a meeting with Jagger about Bridges to Babylon cover, but he didn't get the gig.

"As we say in England, it can get a bit trainspottery"

Out Of Our Heads (UK edition) - in my mind the ultimate band shot of all time.

Me being of the younger generation, I don't understand what you mean by sleeves? Is this the front cover of the LP's (which is basically an album, right?) I mean it sound silly to ask, I know all the Stones albums I just don't know if an LP is the same.

You got the Sun, You got the Moon,
and you've got
The Rolling Stones

How about the US Big Hits (High Tide and Green Grass) album sleeve. A Classic.

I have to go with Black and Blue because when the local record store opened the box on the day of it's release I freaked out it was so cool.
Forget that, on second thought, Through The Past, Darkly.
Best album cover ever, inside and out. Period.

Sticky Fingers
GYYYO
And Tattoo You is very cool. I was mesmorized by that cover front and back when i fist got it...and that single with the horse's hoof is weird!

Down and down she goes
Our, Amanda Jones
I said down and down and down and down
She'd look really lovely at home
Til somebody gonna come up and ask her
To live happily ever after, Miss Amanda Jones ...

I love Beggars Banguet...the white cover and the banquet photo inside.

Perfection.

I am so glad the original photo of a filthy toilet was not used.
