Inspirational post! Even though most of these albums are fairly old, the typography can definitely be used in a modern situation and updated to web 2.0 style.

Yes. You should put the Elvis Presley album cover instead of the Clash one.
You forgot (all of) the Linkin Park Covers, but this is one should be included for sure: Live In Texas
that last one is just a blatant (and much more lame) rip off of radiohead’s 2003 release, ‘hail to the thief.’
Never find again like this
These graphics are so cool.
And very Inspiring indeed!
