You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

oh so many to choose from - it's not even fair!

I'm going to get a lot of weird looks from this, but Dio's "Holy Diver" is an instant classic. Dio is, by far, one of my favorite vocalists of all time. I don't take heavy metal bands seriously because the singers are always like "GRRRRURRURR FRURURGLDOPUER", but Dio has the BEST voice in metal, PERIOD.

I'll also get some VERY weird looks with this choice. Led Zeppelin's Houses of the Holy - lots of people say it's controversial, but I think it's the opposite. Innocence at its best.

I could spend hours on this!

I love that album (and cover!) My dad used to talk about "White Bird" all the time growing up :-)

I was in my 20s when Jane's Addiction was at their peak and their songs were my anthems. Two of the Jane's album covers really stand out for me, the first and my favorite is the original cover from Ritual de lo Habitual which was censored and changed here in the US a few weeks after the albums release.

The image on the right is the original while on the left is the censored version containing only the name and the applicable partial text of the 1st Amendment of the US Constitution.



Oddly enough a previous album cover form the same band and also a favorite album cover of mine was the more visually risky and aptly titled Nothing's Shocking.



I actually still have the copy of the Jane's Addiction Ritual de lo Habitual compact disc and the censored version of the cover as well but to me and it might just be me the uncensored version really sounds better :)

I like a lot of different types of music, so my favorites are somewhat diverse.

The Distillers released two different covers for "Coral Fang" because this one was considered offensive by some:
