For cover art, I tend to prefer photographs over drawings or paintings, as a whole. I'll therefore vote for She Hangs Brightly. I think this picture is wonderful. Light and contrast are superb, and the motif of the winding staircase duplicated on the floor and on the adornments makes up for a perfect effect, very dynamic - considering it's a hotel hall shot.

I'll admit it's a tough draw for this cover art though, cause Tago Mago is immensely evocative, I absolutely love it too. Strange draw too, as the circumvolutions of the brain on the left somehow resound with the motifs on the right. A nice pair, those too!

Tago Mago is good, but She Hangs Brightly is slightly better.....

Musically, though, I prefer Can, of course.
