It was a toss up between Pulse and WYWH, but I went with the latter. There's a starkness to that image that's simply incomparable.

Always thought Wish was their classiest album cover, surprised to see it so far back.  Beautiful packaging and tied quite nicely to the subject matter.

Without a doubt. But I've gotta go with AHM's cow, grounded though it may be. LOL

1. Ummagumma (always liked the Droste-effect; I'm quite surprised because I'm the first to vote for it while I am the 81st voter).
2. Animals
3. A Saucerful of Secrets
4. Relics
5. Wish You Were Here

Pink Floyd seem to have a very good knack for choosing album covers that are very simple but at the same time are witty and clever and have some reference to the songs! Lots of the covers are great but I think I'll choose... Hmm... Animals or Atom Heart Mother or Wish You Were Here.

Wish You Were Here: such a powerful image. Al the artwork is great, BTW, even the postcard which was in my LP copy of the album.
 
I also like the cover of More.
