I was so conflicted in this poll, because I have two absolute favourites. The runner up has to be Trouble In Shangri-La. It's ethereal beauty and earthy-ness is almost like her revisiting her past self, to me. The Stevie that wasn't touched by wealth and luck, but made the best of the simple things in life; making them beautiful in her own way. That's the Stevie I can relate to most. But for the sheer poetic beauty of Bella Donna, I had to vote for it as my favourite. I'm probably reading too much into it, but the darkness surrounding her on the cover has always told a story to me about her isolation during her breakups/heartaches/drug problems etc. It's almost a narrative of how she felt internally; this beautiful and fragile creature perched on its own human form, cradled by the darkness of her subconscious and isolation from others around her. We've all felt that from time to time: Where we can be completely surrounded by people, but in our hearts we feel truelly alone.

I went for Trouble in Shangri-La. Not my favourite album by any means, but I adore the cover. The font, the colours - everything about it just screams 'Stevie' to me, without ever seeming indulgent of self-parodic.

I went with Rock A Little but TISL would be a close second. RAL is special because it symbolizes witchy Stevie and takes me back to 1985 and when that album came out. Just always loved it.

'TISL' without a doubt!
The outtakes are nice too (like the one of Stevie leaning against the arch with her face turned towards the ocean). Can someone post this (and the other outtakes)? |

I think she looks like an angel on the Street Angel cover, & it's always been one of my favorites. Honorable mentions to Trouble In Shangri-La, the colors and her dress are just beautiful !
Also, great idea, Chris. Never even thought of a 'favorite album art' thread! Someone should do one for favorite Fleetwood Mac album art? Anyone? |

Trouble in Shangri La is my pick. I think it's one of the best album covers of all time. Definitely the best to come out that year.
The Wild Heart is my runner up. Great album cover. I also like Crystal Visions and Timespace. |
