Return of the Album Cover Quiz

MokoLoco's picture

It's been a while seen I've seen an album cover quiz here on the blog, so I decided to create one. The theme is eyes, and they are all from proper albums (not singles or compilations). Name the artist and album, and let us know how many you own. Points for eye-based puns in your reply subject title. And what do points mean? Nothing.

Is the artist of 25 an intentional in-joke?

Either way, very, very good work.
