iPod Album view

[scrowner]

I am in the iphone ipod operation. Sometimes the ipod gets into a mode where the album cover will NOT display - regardless of the iphone orientation. Can someone let me know what needs to be pressed to get out of the text on white screen display in the ipod? It is one of the greatest things to show people and sometimes I go into the ipod and no matter what I press I can not get the albums to be displayed - other times it just is there.

Any hints on what modes the ipod gets into to NOT display album covers?
