Not to take away from Parallel Lines, I always preferred this album and the cover photo myself.

This inspired a few album covers parodying it (I'm sure there are others out there):

The backstory to this cover. It was released to friends and family of the band. The model when seeing her bare breast on a billboard in Hollywood had second thoughts and successfully sued the band for $50k and the rose was put in place to cover the nipple! If you get Kiedis’ book he has a pic of the original in there.
