Not when you've got it 🙂

Yellow sleeve. Cartoon drawing of a woman's torso wearing a black bikini.
On her right tit is the artist's name. On her groin is a gun, pointing at you. She's got a fag in her left hand..

🙂 Classic artist, maybe not one of their classic albums though (of which they have quite a few!)

Alright another clue. This'll give it away -
album is from 2001, but they have releases going back to the late '60s.

I was pretty sure I knew this until you said that. Now I've not got a clue...

Right:

A severe looking youngish man in a grey room.

He is sitting at a table.

He regards a geometric shape on the table with a look of indifference.

He is wearing a fairly sharp suit.

If I'd said "a look of cold, machine-like disregard", would it have slowed you down?

No - the staring at the object thing gave it away. Mate had it back in the day, not something I've even owned!
Someone else going?

White border. A painting of a tree dominates the centre, with the sea and clouds behind. The tree is adorned with shells with a puffin in the middle.

Ok - tricky one to describe this

In the background is a mountain range

mid ground is the name of the artist and album

left foreground a man looks out of a window - a shard of sunlight / laser beam/ something (?) is coming from his head up into the sky. His eyes are closed

Big fan of SW and this album, so jumped into focus straight away.

OK, try this:

Purplish background, foreground is a stylised picture of some flowers, in a reddish shade, with greyish leaves.

Top left has the artist's name and album title, in large greyish/white text.

OK, another clue:

Solo artist at times, has been part of a band in his earlier career (late 60's), multi-instrumentalist, very well-regarded for songwriting, musicianship, and producer- of his and many other artists.

Has appeared on tons of major albums.

Ok - I'm going to put this one out of it's misery

It's Todd Rundgren - Something/ Anything?

Although I'd love to see someone have a go at describing the cover of the album that followed it

When he gets back from lunch.

In the meantime:

A large female fruit cake kicks her shoes off whilst relaxing on a swing.
Watching are a snail and Gainsborough's Blue Boy.
