IMO It's between 1984 and Fair Warning. In the end, I'd have to go with 1984. The kid smokin' a butt is just too cool.
I believe that cover was banned in Europe, wasn't it?

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>Yup, some UK stores refused to stock it with it's original cover art.
I would pick Fair Warning as my favorite cover.

In the u.k. a sticker had to be placed over the "offensive" image. I'm pretty sure that the sticker was the roman numerals for 1984, or else it may have been one of those "Contains the hit single..." type of stickers.
My favourite VH album cover is WACF, because they looked like the best band in the world, and they looked like they knew it too.

Fair Warning.
The most interesting cover, far and away. You actually find yourself studying it.
But my second favorite is VHII.
(Most people say it's boring - but I say, "Screw you" to those people.)
The red, white, gray, and light blue set against that darker blue blackground conjures up a lot of images for me.

5150 is so cool. I like the inside of Best of Vol 1 with black background and the black guitar.
