- ‘Wish You Were Here’ (1975) Wish You Were Here’s legendary artwork was a comment on the insincerity prevalent in the music industry. One of the album’s key tracks, Have A Cigar, referred directly to the subject – and the expression “Man I’ve been burnt”, in relation to being ripped off – giving Storm Thorgerson and Aubrey Powell the idea of creating a sleeve featuring two businessmen, one of whom was literally being burnt in a business deal.
- ‘Animals’ (1977) Taking the idea that “pigs might fly” in the most literal sense, Roger Waters suggested that 1977’s Animals should be housed in a sleeve featuring a photograph of London’s Battersea Power Station, with a pig floating between its chimneys.
- ‘The Division Bell’ (1994) For 1994’s The Division Bell, Storm Thorgerson came up with the idea of two large metal heads, each approximately the height of a double-decker bus, which were erected in a field in Ely, Cambridgeshire.

The cover art to the Pink Floyd album The Piper at the Gates of Dawn stands as one of the few times that members of Pink Floyd were pictured on the cover of a vinyl album. The album was Pink Floyd’s debut. It was released on August 5th, 1967. Photographer Vic Singh shot the cover photo. The photo was shot through the glass of a prism lens. The conc...
The Pink Floyd album Meddlewas released on October 30th, 1971. Over the years, there has been some rumble that this was one of the worst Pink Floyd album covers ever released. The Hipgnosis art design art group, who were responsible for the artwork of many of the Pink Floyd covers, have also commented that they were not happy with their work for th...
If only they had Photoshop in 1987, Pink Floyd would have saved a lot of money in shooting the cover for their album A Momentary Lapse of Reason. Shot on the Santron Sands of North Devon, photographer Robert Dowling and creative designer Storm Thorgerson utilized the deployment of eight hundred hospital beds on the sands for their epic shoot. It be...

On the first day of the shoot, the pig broke free of the ...

The cover of the Soundtrack to the French film “More” was chosen to be listed in the Top 10 Pink Floyd album covers list because of the use of color against the silhouettes featured on the front cover artwork. Released during the summer of 1969, the orange hue of the cover might have been thought to represent a nuclear fallout in the shadows of the...
The deep superimposition mix of various items displayed on the cover of Pink Floyd’s A Saucerful of Secrets LP provides album purists with one of the best arguments for defending vinyl albums as the choice of media for rock music. There is no way a small compact disk cover or, even worse, a digital cover icon can display the intricate designs that ...
Talk about making a statement. Bam! This cover hits you right away. Two head sculptures facing each other positioned in a large field at the break of dawn. I really didn’t know what it meant, but art is not always about interpretation; sometimes, you take art in and enjoy just the sheer beauty of the photograph. The silver color and sharp focus of ...
Can you think of any other album cover or logo that defines Pink Floyd’s legacy more than the Dark Side of the Moon cover? Think about all the Pink Floyd tee shirts, calendars, posters, and notebook covers printed over the years. Most of those items have utilized the Dark Side of the Moonlogo more than any other Pink Floyd logo. When looking at the...
When the Wish You Were Here album was first released, the vinyl packaging was wrapped in black plastic with only a sticker on the front cover.
