Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side Of The Moon' Named Greatest Album Cover Of All Time

Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side Of The Moon' has been voted the greatest album cover of all time, in a recent poll.

The 1973 album beat the likes of Nirvana's 'Nevermind' and The Beatles' 'Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' in a survey done by MusicRadar.

"The Floyd cover is a reminder of a time when sleeve art meant more than a jpeg a couple of hundred pixels wide in your iTunes library," said Will Groves, editor of MusicRadar.com.

Pink Floyd's 'Animals' album also made the top-10 of the poll.

Meanwhile, Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters and David Gilmour reunited on stage at a recent gig in London (May 12).
