Dark Side Of The Moon as the greatest album cover of all time. The famous prism artwork was conceived by design studio Hipgnosis, originally the home of designer and Genesis author Storm Thorgerson. Pink Floyd's
Animals, also designed by Hipgnosis - featuring a pig floating above Battersea Power Station - came in at number 10 in the poll, conducted by website
