Your favorite album cover
 

What is your favorite album cover from Stevie's solo career? As we know, each album cover has reflected where Stevie was at that moment in time in her life. For me, I love the cover of The Soundstage Sessions because it shows that right now Stevie is having the time of her life being an entertainer and a woman of the stage. TISL was a close second for me, because it's just classic Stevie! Here's all the album covers:

Can I say all of them?!?! :laugh:

I was damned close to saying 'all of them' too...I really do love the way Stevie (and of course her photographers) capture the essence of Her in her portraits, and each of the covers are so freakin' evocative...I did chose The Wildheart though...I just love that one...TISL and BD would probably come in tied for second place...

Crystal Visions captures her whole essence so well... and for the picture to be 30 years old, she looks very chic IMO. But TISL is just so beautiful to look at... so evocative of what the album is about. So I had to chose TISL.

Rock A Little....

.....followed by Crystal Visions.

I said TISL. Then Crystal Visions and The Wild Heart.

But to be honest, I really don't think many of them are very good. There is something I don't care for in each cover. TISL is creative, and shows Stevie looking past everything bad in her life. I just wish we could see her face on the cover. Street Angel is my least favorite, the font and placing are the worst ever. Rock A Little reminds me too much of a Christmas tree. I don't care for her outfit on Timespace, and TOSOTM pose is too strange.

Bella Donna because it's the album that started solo Stevie... : )

Definitely TSIL.

I had trouble choosing between Rock A LIttle and Soundstage Sessions (that smile!), but ultimately sided with RAL cuz it's stood the test of time. I like it's graphic approach. Crystal Visions could be first, second, or third also. That's probably the one I'd most want framed.

WOW.. that was a hard one, but my all time favorite has to be Bella Donna with TISL a close second.. :thumbsup: Great thread!!

this was tough. I voted for RAL but BD and TISL were close seconds.

TISL is great- I just wish I could see her face!!!

Bella Donna is probably my favorite... followed closely by TISL.

For me it's the Wild Heart album, maybe because it was my first Stevie album.

Crystal Visions has a beautiful photo though.

I went for Trouble In Shangri-La, it's a great cover! I really don't like the Street Angel cover. The font and picture makes it all look pretty rushed, it just doesn't work.
