I'm torn. I nominated Zappa, for it's sheer randomness and originality. Plus it looks cool.  However, Abbey Road is a seminal image. Perhaps a bit overused... I'll have to think about this one.

Since this tournament isn't about which album cover is the most iconic, but which one you like best, Zappa got my vote.

Well...the Abbey Road cover is such an icon and it is pretty hard to disregard that and just look at these two as two square pictures. I voted for Abbey which may be because I failed at that task, but then again Weasels isn't that great a cover really. It's just a semi humorous cartoon drawing which for it's artistic quality has been upped every Sunday morning.

And Abbey Road is a bunch of hippies crossing the street.

Well, when you put it like that... 
Is there any way to change your vote?

Everyone knows the whole funeral metaphor on the Abbey cover, right? Because I always thought that was cool I'm voting for that.
