Look Smart Trivia: '80s Album Covers

Thanks to MTV, the '80s were the first decade where the album cover was no longer the most important way for a band to express something visually - or at least show you what the band members looked like. And with the rise of cassettes and, later, CDs, it didn’t pay to put a lot of fine detail into your cover when most of your audience might only ever see it a few inches wide. But despite all that, the '80s produced some iconic, or at least eye-catching, or at the very least, inescapably ubiquitous album covers.
