Lime is food? Yep.

Mandarin and Clementine went to meet the entire citrus gang, nobody ate people.

In some cases (e.g. Sgt Pepper) the cover is much better than the album.

Though not my favorite Beatles LP, I would debate you on Pepper.   Regardless, a wonderful, iconic, groundbreaking album cover.

Now "Their Satanic Majesties"...absolutely.

I bought that album when it was released--the cover featured a lenticular image, which was not always the case later on.



Unlike Pepper, I like most of the music on it, particularly "Citadel":

Factually, any album picture is pointless. Album is about music.

Here are two beauties from my blogger friend's "Keepers" list to disprove your point, RR:

And here's one of my favourite covers from that era--so simple yet so effective!
