…and downloading
Bump, bump…I remember when I had this on vinyl apart from the dope image the cover wore out like a well used pair of jeans…
I discovered a lot of good artists from purchasing CD’s back in the day just because I thought the artwork was cool. I still am a fan of Iron Maiden’s album artwork, this was the first one I bought of theirs back in HS.
Man you bring back the memories - used to do the same only it was album covers. Me and my buds would spend hours at Tower Records or Peaches just flipping through bins of albums picking and listening based on the cover art. Find one you thought was cool and take it up to the booth and have them spin it in the store.

Wow, you said Tower Records. I used to love that place. There was always a cool energy in there.
Yeah man, was good times. I used to hang at Kemp Mill and Sam Goodies doing the same. It was also convenient for the Kemp Mill one since it was right next to the theater in the Mall so while we were waiting to be let in, we browsed and listened to music.
I remember my Dad having this back when I was in grade school. He used to play it for me and my bro in our Audi (which had a good sound system for the time) while we cruised around. I was always intrigued by the album art and didn’t realize at the time that it was from the movie.
Rush had a few nice album covers. This one was one of if not my very favorite.
Oh, the record is really good, too!
There was something about this cover that I always came back to after pulling the album out of the jacket
