Album Cover Hall of Fame - Album Cover Art Interviews and News

The Best of The Best Album Cover lists - an overview

by Mike Goldstein, Curator, AlbumCoverHallofFame.com

This article is the ACHOF’s special effort to show, overall, which album cover images that music fans (as represented in music and design mags, blogs and related reader polls) are the most-liked and appreciated. Over the years, there have been many lists done by genre/sub-genre, but we chose to focus on results from polls and/or sites with a long history of publishing stories on album cover art.

Please read the article on our AlbumCoverHallofFame.com web site - http://albumcoverhalloffame.wordpress.com/2013/02/21/the-best-of-the-best-album-covers-of-all-time-lists/

We hope that you’ll take the time to review the following list of references – both online and in book form – that were used to prepare this article and then provide us with either/both any other lists you think we should consider and/or any feedback you might have on our conclusions or methodology. Our goals, as always, are to provide fans of album cover art the best available information and then stimulate ongoing discussions on the topic. Thanks for your attention and participation – Mike G
