Ever fancied gathering your mates together and reshooting your favourite album cover, but with you as the star? Here's a few ideas of ones that you can remake quite quickly.
1. Abbey Road - The Beatles
The doyen of Beatles covers was not shot in Liverpool, but St Johns Wood London in London. It was taken in only 10 minutes in 1969 after the band abandoned their ideas of an image of the himalayas. The nearest tube is St Johns Wood or follow signs for Lords Cricket Ground.
2. Storm in Heaven - The Verve
The Verve's first studio album was released in 1993 and featured an album image shot in Thor's cave in Staffordshire. The cave is still used by climbers and prehsitoric human remains were found here in the 18th century.
3. What's the story (morning glory) - Oasis
