Horrible 70s album titles like I've Got My Own Album To Do

https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61xQScb3q4L._SS500.jpg

haha these are great

yeah i've never had a problem with these extending way past the 70s, though it helps when it's an act that plausibly had been saving up this title since that time. the 70s is a ~feeling~ with these cats.

and yeah "But, I'm On The Guest List" is incredible

the comma, it's the comma

no

terrible innuendoes/double entendres are a different beast

that does appear to be the actual finished album cover

0_o

,0_o,

wrt to snatch that totally doesn't have the shruggy, just a regular joe kinda irony that is the key to these.

like a i've got my own album to do title CAN be a pun, but being a pun doesn't necessarily make it one if that makes sense

"Plant Me Now & Dig Me Later"

gulliver smith one confirms thread is undergoing a real renaissance imho

^^

i know everyone says this like once a month, but it really is amazing how the examples never end

I anticipate this thread lasting a 12 years, just like the 70s did

wkiw atlee yeager

Yeah I think that goes past horrible and back around to kinda awesome, mostly courtesy of his sideburns

Galapagos Duck ‎– Right On Cue

Teenage Daniel Stern and his corny friends apparently

Hoodoo Rhythm Devils, "All Kidding Aside"

http://www.vinylhistory.com/rock/hoodo_rhythm_devils_all_kidding_c.jpg

I feel like that is kind of a lazy one for this thread, like the actual cover should be the band pushing a group of children to one side of the frame or some such thing.

'hoodoo rhythm devils' is like the tgi fridays of band names

Yes, let's have this one too then, Hoodoo Rhythm Devils, "The Barbecue Of Deville"

https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/81H4hVG6oGL._SX425_.jpg

that's the stuff

it's been said before but that Ron Wood album is p awesome, great basement tapes kinda vibe w/ the swagger of... well, a lot of guys w/ a lot of swagger

he had his own album to do...and he did it

now that's what I call a review

Conway sad.

Chris Spedding - The Only Lick I Know

excellent

I've looked at that Hoodoo Rhythm Devils many times in used bins, never realized it was titled The Barbecue of Deville. Ouch.

Came across this one, 'The Great Fatsby' by Leslie West this weekend.

Back cover shot is pretty 'pub band'.

Tracklist is particularly on-the-nose for this kind of band.

Maybe posted before, but:

Focus - Hamburger Concerto (1974)

i feel as if the fugs were ahead of their time with this one

Focus - Hamburger Concerto (1974)

I came upon their record In And Out Of Focus (also known as Focus Plays Focus) but could tell if it fit on this thread or on the punning album titles thread. Was disappointed that the photo wasn't making more use of being in and out of focus.

Yeah that's right on the border with 60s-style lame puns that feel like they were picked by the label.

(Billy Thorpe & the) Aztecs, "More Arse Than Class" (1974)

... got Poxy Fuled when I tried to post the image I originally wanted to for this album

if poco had released an album with really bad cover art called "one size fits all" would it be on this thread? what about a bread record called "here come the warm jets" or a 10cc record called "never mind the bollocks"?

is it more or less implied that these album covers don't contain discs with "serious" music? or really what i mean is, we kind of pretend that it's lame, indulgent, coked out buffoonery for the sake of making the joke work, this kind of faux-bro rockist lens that we collectively pretend to wear? is that what makes them funny? because they are really funny, the good ones anyway (by which i may also mean bad, i'm not sure).

i kind of feel like this thread might be the equivalent of laughing disparagingly at "the room" and then everybody goes back to watching "dog star man" and "battleship potemkin" in reverent silence.

i love this thread.
