Here's my untested suggestion:
There is this great stuff called "Goo Gone" which you can get at any hardware store, or even Walgreens. I would try putting a bit on a Q-tip, and then apply it carefully to the sticker. Try to saturate the sticker without getting any excess on the album cover itself. Let it sit for just a minute to penetrate the sticker paper, then carefully rub the sticker off. The Goo Gone disolves the adhesive and if you're really careful about not using too much, it shouldn't do too much damage to the cover itself.

I haven't actually tried this, so you may want to try it on a less valuable cover first. Let us know if it works!

edit: looks like tikitatt beat me to it, so it must be a good idea! :)
