We did but at least I, personally, have never bought or not bought a record because of its cover.

  Maybe not exclusively because of the cover but I'd be lying if I said it's never influenced me to buy a record I was otherwise undecided about.

  You can't honestly know what subconscious effects seeing that cover had. To say it had zero effect is pretty disingenuous when you take into account what we know about human decision making and a massive global ad industry.

    Of course I can say that for myself. Every record I ever bought was because I knew at least some of the music on it beforehand and went to shop to get it. Cover could influence how I felt about the whole package afterwards, but since I never not bought something because how it looked, I can be pretty certain that it didn't matter for my purchases. I agree that it would be different if my music discovery came from browsing records in music stores where look could influence me, but that is not how I ever went about it.
