I think Mirage is my favorite. I like Say You Will a lot too, especially with John and Mick holding hands.

Say You Will deluxe version is their best cover imo. the regular cover of that album is not bad either. but you don't have them among the choices.

Rumours for it's pure guilty pleasure, just screams "did you hear Mick and Stevie are do'in it?" hence Rumours, perfect cover and iconic pose.

RUMOURS

So many people have tried to re create this in their own personal pictures.

One of my favorites was our own Louie Louie and his other half.

yeah it was red but not "just red" http://www.amazon.com/Say-You-Will-L.../dp/B00008PW3O - for some reason to me that look is extremely aesthetically pleasing.

Mirage, but I would even say Mirage open, with all 5 of them. I like that and even the ugly ones happened to look amazing on that one. Actually though, there is only one ugly one.

Are you refering to Stevie's extended skeleton hand?

I actually love that photo, except for the creepy hand

i agree with you re Not Make Believe, it hurts my ears to listen to that.

but i thought it was well worth the money (of course i bought it off either ebay or amazon about 2 years ago so it was probably much less money then what it was originally offered for) just for the look of the album and especially for Love Minus Zero that i've never heard before that - sublime version!!

I would have gone for Mirage, but the old lady face in their hands, and the awful airbrushing of Stevie's neck freaks me out.

Rumours is probably their best, clichéd though that answer is. Although, I love the SYW cover, they both look fabulous.

I actually voted for Kiln House because I think it's pretty and also interesting how it was before LB/SN yet reflects that California/mystic vibe they brought.
Obviously, Rumours iconic, but felt I had to be different

I also really like the SYW and Mirage covers. Tusk not so much, my favorite musically, but the cover looks like an old textbook lol - you know the kind with a crappy graphic and title? For the life of me I can't find an image on Google, but anyway lol just mho.

I chose Kiln House because of the back although i was really torn between that and Rumours, sorry I didn't include Mirage and Say you will, didn't realize the two would be so popular.
