      Jim Morrison was a bit eccentric. But, he wrote some great songs. Thank you for watching

    Great bit of information. I will have to ask a friend of mine (big YES fan) if he knew Roger Dean's 1st album art was for a Jazz band. 🖖

    Good video. Who is the band on your wall below The Beatles? Sonic Youth? Great pic from the little I can see of it.
    I'm pretty sure the Yes guy did cover of Paladin Charge. I wish it was the cover for Zeppelin II. I don't like the cover for Zeppelin II. The horse is strangely scary. Maybe it's the posture or angle. Same with that creature on Queen's "News of the World". Awkwardly goony can be eerie. Like with the horse.
    Some of my favorite covers:
    Eternal Storm - Come the Tide (Better for Zeppelin III. Matches viking theme).
    Judas Priest - British Steel and Hell Bent for Leather
    Angel Witch - Screamin' & Bleedin'
    Wishbone Ash - Argus - Too good for Wishbone Ashe. Should have been cover for Zeppelin III instead of the stupid actual cover for Zeppelin III.
    Tito Puente - Dance Mania (I love all those pretty woman, Ray Conniff type covers)
    Ashes & Fire - Ryan Adams
    Mercyful Fate - Don't Break the Oath (art perfectly matches album title)
    Mercyful Fate - Melissa (The art absurdly does NOT match album title. Again, scary in an unconventional way. To this day I'm not sure what I'm looking at. I kind of like it that way. The mystery of it.)

      The album cover next to the Beatles is The Undertones. This is their first self titled album. It came out in 1979 on the Sire label. They are from Northern Ireland and have a punk/new wave sound. Love them. Similar to The Jam. I like your album cover choices. Bold. Thank you for watching

      He is indeed a designer whom I should have mentioned. Thank you for watching
