hmm I dunno. I think the original captures that lush nostalgic photography from the 90s much better, which works well for an album called the suburbs. You lose a lot of that by washing red over it imo.

The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady by Charles Mingus
My mind always races to this album whenever people bring up good covers. I think it's such a bastion of good design at a time where bad design was rampant, especially 'graphic design' didn't really have its own identity. It's such a contemporary design, and I'm always floored when I remember it was designed in the early 60s - the same year you have horrors like Please Please Me.
If it was released today it'd probably be nothing special, but it's so bold typographically and has a real awareness of negative space. Probably good by mistake. I should really look up the designer.
