I know this is unfashionable, but I really liked all those Yes and Asia album covers by Roger Dean.

Especially the one from Relayer:

The original cover of Their Satanic Majesties Request by The Uglies. Campy but cool.

I like that Zappa cover too. Good one. To the point.

David Welker's album art for Phish's "Rift" is pretty cool.

All the Nurse With Wound covers are interesting, done by Steven Stapleton himself. Sugar Fish Drink is a favourite.
