    I had that album. It cost me a whooping $30 back in the 80s because it was an import. My Brother has it now.

    Osibisa 'Welcome Home' and "Woyaya' are great album covers. Well, ALL Osibisa covers were great.

    One with outdoor scene is from My Morning Jacket's, Waterfall (2015). The other one is labelled, and says it is Magnetic Field's 1994 album, Holiday.
     
  16. Never seen, heard of either album or the artists e.g. "they're not much good then"



    However, this thread is about album covers/sleeves of which both of these are good.
    So, well done, Double L.

    I think that's an excellent photo and the choice of the unusual material for the cover itself made it highly distinctive

    I'm not a huge fan... The Neil Young tunes are stellar and he adds a lot to the other songs... it's hit and miss but overall pretty good... the worst is Nash's limousine liberal sanctimony ("Teach Your Children") but even that has some interesting pedal steel courtesy of Jerry Garcia
