So we decided to investigate whether the Statue of Liberty has graced the cover of other albums.
Like Billy Corgan and crew, the Dead Kennedys use the Lady in a rather ribald, political manner.

There's this, um, amateurish model, so rockin', so daring:

On the opposite scale of things, taste-wise, here's a rather straightforward usage by some rather jaunty fellows:

Anita Bryant looks like she drank about ten gallons of Florida orange juice in this image:

The great 80s band XTC had a single named 'Statue of Liberty', well worth searching out if you havent heard it:

Meanwhile, we don't know what to say about this one:

Sanjaya Malakar, is that you?
We would actually love to plaster our wall with this groovy cover from the New Orleans rock band Bonerama:

But our favorite Lady Liberty depiction, although abstract, obviously belongs to Supertramp. And not just because we're a sucker for 'Dreamer, you know you are a dreamer..."

Are we missing any other Lady Liberty album covers? Let us know in the comments section!
I have been hunting for a CD I saw in a Used Book/CD store. It had a foxy model, with painted skin, spoofing the Statue of Liberty, with a band member stretching her bikini bottom. I can't remember the name of the group and I have googled for the image endlessly, to no avail.
