Progrock profundity

Here's something for prog-rock aficionados as well as detractors. A pictorial study of 18 of the most outlandish progressive rock album covers. While some of the commentary is decidedly mean-spirited, in some cases it's not that far from the truth. My main reason for posting this is because I have a personal connection to one of the bands represented here. Kudos to anyone who can figure it out.

I have 11. Someone posted this to Progressive Ears. Predictably, some responses have come from the humour-impaired. I can’t help but think...come on! There’s someone out there that actually likes the cover to Acquiring the Taste? And they were complementary to the music!

And let’s not forget the guy who insists on posting repeatedly that the three worst album covers in history are Hemispheres, Yes’ Going for the One and Hinten by Guru Guru. Can you say “closet case,” boys and girls?
