|  | A figment of our exaggeration | | Join Date: Aug 2007 Location: Way Out West | | | I was always a big fan of Roger Dean's covers for Yes albums.
My favorites are Tales From Topographic Oceans & Relayer.
The full artwork on a gatefold album is cool |

| | | Brain Salad Surgery...is borderline porn, no?
(Especially since we all know that BSS is slang for ________). Thick As A Brick-
I still own the LP. Connect the dots on see what Fluffy is all excited about...not sure how that translates to what the cd offers.
Oh, yeah...not to mention the cover "shot".
Hey, when you're about 13 years old in the early '70s...it was all we had.

Not very racy by today's standards but it helped jump start my puberty.

Doesn't hurt that it's also my favourite Rush album
