The album cover art is part of the whole package, IMO; it's thus valid
to show it as a visual depiction even if it's not explicitly mentioned
by itself.
It is quite posible to buy an album without knowing
what it
looks like.
It is indeed, but it's not easier.
Besides, there's a long history (pre Wikipedia, heck pre internet) of
album cover art being usable as fair use when writing about albums.
