No poll here, just a question.
What do you think is the best gatefold style album cover?
This is NOT about the music. It's about the packaging. Post pictures if you can.
BTW, Triple albums like Yessongs or Welcome Back My Friends... are valid options

The ones I can remember when I used to have vinyl were The Alan Parsons Project's debut, ELO's Out of the Blue, Genesis' The Lamb and Seconds Out, and Pink Floyd's Atom Heart Mother and Animals.

Hawkwind "Warrior on the edge of time" has a beautiful 4-panel foldout cover.

Thick As A Brick
 

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

I second this.
The full cover of "Bitches Brew" is also really impressive

I also like this one because it has the third centre panel with lyrics on the last two faces.
