I picked up a Molly Hatchet album for the Frazetta cover.

Nils Lofgren’s Breakaway Angel. I’d gone to the store intending to buy some Nils, when deciding which one the one with the Ralph Steadman called to me, as his art so often does.

"Eat a Peach" by the Allman Brothers Band. The inside album art was pure late 70's wild. Good music.

I loved the Cirque Du Soleil music from their CD “Mystere” and bought several other CDs back in the 90s without knowing what the music was based completely on their cover art.

Some were hit or miss, but I generally liked what I got.

It didn't take long before I became a Ken Snyder groupie, following him from Holiday Inn lounges, to Music Fairs, and Amusement Parks. That was the best summer of my life... until he went Sandusky on me.

Well, I bought the Elmer City Rambling Dogs LP for the cover art, but never actually listened to it.

None.

If I liked the art, I bought a poster.

It wasn’t art, it was poetry.

Back around ‘78 Neil Young was quoted in Rolling Stone,
about his Rust... tour:

“I just wanted those kids to think this was the
loudest f_cking thing they ever heard.”

“At last”, I thought, “here’s somebody who understands.”

(pardon, but what was that you said?)

Don’t think I ever purchased an album for the cover art. However, below are some I thought were cool back in the day -
Savoy Brown - Street Corner Talking
T. Rex - Electric Warrior
Faces - Oh La La
Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Queen - News of the World

And this is.

If I want to look at softcore porn, I won't buy a CD by a talentless bimbo pictured writhing on the cover.

None.Every album/CD I’ve ever bought was bought because I knew,or at least suspected,that there was at least one song...or one passage...that I’d enjoy.
