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

used to think this was one of the most sanctimonious titles ever, until I saw this cover:

so a 'to do' list, maybe? first: say hi to St Peter?
…but no, that's the less common cover - the other covers and inner vinyl labels carry the version with the apostrophe.
don't know about you plebes and your worldly concerns, but…

Ha totally the Eastern mystic version of that type of title. Love that album though.

Hahahaha... Here's a horror:

I don't know if it exists, but there should certainly be one called "Try This On For Size"

Or how about "Salad Daze" with an illustration of the band from behind sitting crosslegged staring up at like a giant glowing radish or some shit

"Second Place is the First Loser"

The Frames should have done a record called "Shot Down in Frames"

"New Clear Waste"

"If Assholes Could Fly This Place Would Be an Airport"

Killing Joke weirdly fits this thread with ...What's THIS For?

Not an album, but the posthumous Faces box set Five Guys Walk Into A Bar..

Ha, love that title (and the set).

Great work, everyone.

Jethro Tull - Stand Up (featuring a cardboard, stand-up cutout of the band...standing up)

Yeah the Faces are so perfect for these types of titles, so loveable

iirc, "Throwback" features guitarist Alan Throw.

"New Clear Waste"

... belongs on a horrible album titles by new wave bands thread though

also http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/96/Ashnuclearsounds.jpg/220px-Ashnuclearsounds.jpg

and AR Kane's third album was called New Clear Child

it was rubbish btw, just in case the title doesn't serve as warning enough

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/2/25/LetItBe.jpg/220px-LetItBe.jpg
I always thought this had a "Would you fucks leave us alone now please?" kinda vibe to it.

If they'd stayed together into the 70s proper, Let It Be...Naked would have been a great title for a beigey album cover where the four Beatles are hanging around at a stuffy, fancy-dress party, all nude, but with unlikely objects blocking the naughty bits from view.

gawd i forgot about let it be...naked....what a clown

oh shit I guess it's numerically and alphabetically represented but Van Halen's OU812 is one of these

Oh...You Eight One, Two?!

Some band also did I81B4U

Laugh? I Nearly Bought One! by Killing Joke

Beatles b-side: "You Know My Name (Look Up The Number)"

Saw this and thought of this thread

Ha, that's fucking awful. I saw one last week and meant to post it, too:

Oh good god, I only just got what I think the "Which One's Willie?" cover is supposed to mean.

I don't get it... "which one's will he?" (will he what?)

I want to know, but I also know the answer is going to be tedious in a way only terrible 70s album titles are.

The boy is holding up the photo to his mother asking which is his father. she slept with all of them. Also a double entendre - which one is Willie vs whose 'Willie' was it.

Actually sort of clever, in the stupidest way something can be clever.

I saw this and thought it was maybe a modern day version of this, but I think it's slightly too subtle? The title really needs to written in a font at least the same size as the artists name, and the cover should be a close up of the ace of clubs, with a hand pointing at the club.

needs to be in the literal covers thread.

I think join the club totally works

The Zevon title is good

Has their ever been a joint effort between two artists named Juan called "It Takes Juan to Know Juan?"

I always groan/crack up when I see that one in the dollar bin, it's SO sloppy and bad-looking, and just screams ''...but you wouldn't have enjoyed it much!''

Um... those Juicy Lucy albums are a little disturbing

Really, isn't Sheik Yerbouti an appropriate-as-hell album title ??? This was in the era of Shah of Iran as well... i remember a neighbor coming home from months of construction work in the Middle East with a gift tin of Shah Pistachios. Relevant, i propose.
