If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them. - Karl Popper
6.07 - Stone Roses - Stone Roses - great album, bad cover
For a band that was so full of themselves, not sure how they ended up with this as their album cover. Why oranges? Why red white and blue stripes? Why the splatter paint as the backdrop?
If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

Black Crowes, this is how you do juvenile female crotch humor...
6.11 - Sailin' Shoes, Little Feat (Wildcard)
Stylized psychedelic nonsense, somewhat subtle vulgarity, a phallic snail, Mick Jagger lurking in the background... what's not to love?
"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master - that's all."
Wasted rock stars should not allow their band members' dufus buddies to design their album covers. Otherwise, they might end up with something as laughably amateurish as a terrible ballpoint pen scribble of a pointing bird on a flying naked woman getting flipped off by a cactus. Fun fact: Neil Young actually liked this atrocity, and paid the guy $2000 for it. Oy...

Makes the other cover discussed earlier look tame in comparison.
"The inspiration came solely from label RCA Records’ marketing personnel; the band members had nothing to do with it, but early on they did stand behind it and tried to defend its use as being an artistically symbolic representation of the title track’s lyrical theme: that time is the killer of virgin innocence. Not surprisingly, it was soon replaced by a more acceptable alternative cover depicting the band (in a rather ridiculous pose). More recently, some band members, in particular former lead guitarist Uli Roth, have expressed regret over the cover and their original support of it."
