Maybe its something to do with Ancient Greece and male beauty, that's just a guess, but most prog bands of the 1970s were pretty deep

Not to mention that it's on the back of the album.

Here's one, but it is unclear what gender these buttocks are of.

When this subject was brought up in regards to Rush's Hemispheres, my thought was ... well, they certainly wouldn't have gotten away with it if the naked guy was facing the camera as opposed to away from it. You can show ass and get away with it much easier than you can get away with showing vag/dong.

There is symbolism involved. One aspect is it represents our natural state, without all the trappings of fashion, etc.

The funny thing is, when the album cover isn't prog, it is often absolutely atrocious. Like Care Bear's album cover for "Teeth":

(I'm using spoiler tags here because it is absolutely horrible.)
