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

... that's the Hudson Brothers btw, best image I could find (xp)

kkk guy in background? wtf

Even more objectionable, Bernie Taupin's in the background.

Which Hudson Brother was Sonic Youth's "Swimsuit Issue" about?

The Counts - "What's Up Front That - Counts"

This is such a dope record though

Even more objectionable, Bernie Taupin's in the background.

Was wondering about that, then looked closer and saw it was originally released on Elton & Bernie's vanity label, The Rocket Record Company.

re: the Counts, it looked promising, maybe I'll stop back at the shop and grab it if it's cheap.

Joe Cocker: Luxury You Can Afford

We need to see the open gatefold to see the extent of Caravan's 'joke'

http://caravan.get-ctrl.com/sites/4c5ab81e-6108-4aa1-bcae-27ae0a000002/img/thumbs/50fd4b08-6090-4000-991f-7aa90a000002_960x.jpg

Special circle of hell for gatefold punchline "jokes," between that and Jo Jo Gunne and "Did He Fall..." it's just an awful cavalcade of failure.

Hudson Brothers seems like it's going for a live-action version of one of these: post movie posters done in a busy/claustrophobic caricature style from the 70s and 80s - lookit all these wacky characters! It's a mad, mad, mad, mad album! But you just can't convey the same density of little heads in this format. And yeah, uh, the Klansman. No thanks.

thought Joe Cocker was Griff Rhys-Jones for a moment there

suggestban caravan

thought Joe Cocker was Griff Rhys-Jones for a moment there

Cocker's not a cunt tho

btw Caravan are an f'n awesome band despite the late period album covers

Golden Earring - 'Grab it for a Second'

ehh the cover's not that great anyway

cover isn't in the vein but "Whoa, Nellie!" by Nellie Furtado is kind of in this zone, saw it at at secondhand store the other day

man though dr casino I'm listening to that Phil Everly solo stuff right now and it's pretty nice!

hahaha i remember lolling at that Furtado title at the time...surely couldn't have been her idea, ugh.

If I were to check out only one Phil Everly solo record above, which should it be? "Phil's Diner" is the most appealing I gotta say...just a nice guy on a road trip getting a kick out of seeing his name on a sign...

Precursor to Phil's Diner

Unfortunate title for your only album...

Feel sad now, hope Paul has had a happy life.

Mrs Poppy Seeds is a babe

At first glance I thought Wagon Tracks was by Genderswitch.

Mrs Poppy Seeds is a babe

I saw her perform last year and she remains a babe.

Wow, she looks great. Canadian air must be good for your skin!

LOVE that Poppy Family LP cover - I have never seen one, even though I have the CD.

Mr. Poppy, of course, is Terry Jacks, who would later look back on his seedier days as so many seasons in the sun.

Damn! Did not know that

he had joy he had fun

^^With a Mrs. Poppy like that, how could he not?

Saw this album on the Real Gone label website today...

(PS: this album has a title track: http://youtu.be/lI_gm6GvEls)

so many cowboys

ST11261 (1974) was the sixth album released by Brewer & Shipley.

The album's title refers to its Capitol Records catalog number, a device previously used by Peter, Paul & Mary (Album 1700, 1967), and which would later be used for albums released by Dave Davies (AFL1-3603, 1980) and Yes (90125, 1983).

This predates the '70s by a few months, and is a pretty good record, but it still belongs on this thread

Billy "Crash" Craddock - 'Rub It In'

(sorry if this has been here before, thread is difficult to search)

http://thumbs.ebaystatic.com/d/l225/m/m58drmUw3d3k9oq-wQHNzhQ.jpg

his 1978 album 'Turning Up and Turning On' probably deserves a mention as well

The Jackie Lomax album belongs on cover connections beside Children by The Mission.

"Is This What You Want?" lol

genuine lol

crossposted from the "Primal Scream with the swagger of Oasis" thread, these dipshits doing throwback
