album cover in bottom left corner... gone from itunes 11?

pretty annoying frankly, as i liked the song view with album covers on the left which was akin to the new 'artists' view in the new one but with more info, so i'd like to switch back to the song view, as it has everything i need information-wise (and there is no artist sidebar on the left....). but now i can't see the **** album covers! dammit! they're making me choose between two systems i don't want haha
