What record covers have more than four corners? There's that one by the Stones, but I'm going to go ahead and submit:

Traffic "Low Spark Of High Heeled Boys"

― Grasping The Canyon, Saturday, 29 January 2005 05:15 (twenty-one years ago)

Grand Funk Railroad 'E pluribus Funk' has 'infinity' corners

Wasn't there some Stones collection that was octagonal? Through the Past Darkly? High Tides and Green Grass?

And what about the Small Faces Ogden Nut's Gone Flake or whatever it's called? Wasn't that also some kind of polygon?

the Andromeda Strain soundtrack.
The New Tweedy Brothers LP

I have an LP copy of Street Hassle by Lou Reed with a corner cut off, guess it was a promo.

If a corner is cut it has five corners then, right?

Ogden's is theoretically round except for the hinge (see also XTC's Big Express)

A Wizard A True Star -- Todd Rundgren
Shoot Out At the Fantasy Factory -- Traffic (follow-up to LSOHHB).

several xposts to Ken L: it was Through The Past, Darkly. And you're right about Ogden's Nut Gone Flake.

And wasn't there a Rod Stewart/Faces compilation with an oval shape?

The Rod Stewart album was in the shape of a shot glass IIRC (can't recall title)

Bad Company 'Rough Diamonds' had a serrated edge

In addition to echoinggrove's suggestion of the The Andromeda Strain soundtrack, there is also the Add N to X record "Black Rocks in the Sun" which bites it's cover.

It's "Sing it again Rod"

"I have an LP copy of Street Hassle by Lou Reed with a corner cut off, guess it was a promo."

The copy I had had a corner cut, too. I sold it, though, because that album is lousy. (GET IT? LOU REED? "LOUSY?")
