Go to google images and search for "jazz" or "miles". You will not find that photo in the first 200+ images (I haven't checked further). You will see many other photos of Miles Davis though. You call that image "iconic"?

And then go search for "morrison".



43rd one, by my quick count: http://images.google.com/search?tbm=isch&hl=en&sourc...

And 20th for "Miles Davis": http://images.google.com/search?hl=en&biw=1400&bih=9...

"Kind of Blue" the album is incredibly famous and respected (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kind_of_Blue#Reception_and_infl...), and its album art--though not the best I've seen--is therefore a Big Deal by association, if nothing else.


Point proven. How can an iconic image be #20 or #43? Shouldn't it be #1 like for Morrison?
