^^ i've got that book, the photos in it are quintessenially 70s

well I said it, my coworker ran with it, it's happening

Steve Fincham: Need the Weekend Off?

Local private press LP from, I'm gonna guess about '83.

we could be witnessing the actual birth of a meme here

one might even say the

Yesterday at work somebody asked me for help when I was swamped and I almost replied "I've got my own album to do" but realized it would have made zero sense.

I did this today! My friend wants me to contribute to something he's writing, and after agreeing he told me to "get on it then", to which I replied with Mr. Wood's words.

This thread has made record stores more enjoyable for me, always keeping an eye out for more titles

YES!

I found one last weekend but it is from '82, which should be ok as there are a few 80s LPs on here.

Todd Rundgren - The Ever Popular Tortured Artist Effect

Steppenwolf "For Ladies Only" and "Steppenwolf At Your Birthday Party" are a bit odd. The Euro cover on "For Ladies Only" definitely fits in with some of these on the thread.

"Jenny, did you invite Steppenwolf to my birthday party?"

I'd love to watch a cartoon based around characters in this band who go around in a van playing shows and solving mysteries.

oh god, "For Ladies Only" is horrrrrid

Incidentally, now that it's catching on as an expression - - - in what tone do we imagine Wood expressing this sentiment? I've never taken it as indignant (though it works beautifully for that) but rather more of a "wellp, I guess it's my turn, here we go!" Really it should have been a Ringo Starr title, he has the right "oh, good ol' Ringo" quality about him.

Steppenwolf Birthday LP rules

The penis car was the gatefold photo on the US version:

stroke of genius

definitely a stroke of something.

Oh crap, I just remembered another good one!

Black Oak Arkansas - If an Angel Came to See You, Would You Make Her Feel at Home?

I got to say BOA is a weird ass boogie band.

probe records

xp BOA were like just on the verge of being a cult at one point, I think, but wound up being more into having a good time.

All bands should strive to have in-ground pools with the group logo at the bottom.

Got a reissue of this mid '70s jazz album (sax/piano duets) recently:

Good Rats - Birth Comes To Us All

http://cps-static.rovicorp.com/3/JPG_400/MI0001/538/MI0001538356.jpg?partner=allrovi.com

Good Rats - 'From Rats To Riches'

https://dombestlist.files.wordpress.com/2012/07/good_rats_richesf.jpg

also responsable for numerous other rat-pun based album titles, 'Ratcity In Blue', 'Rats The Way You Like It' etc

if you like the 'Birth Comes To Us All' then you can buy a rare vintage promo t-shirt featuring the cover:

Included with this t shirt is an authentic plastic rat that was thrown into the audience at The Paradise rock club in Boston.

this is from 1982 but in keeping with the spirit of the thread imo:

4 Out Of 5 Doctors - 2nd Opinion

(their second album, naturally)

the 'two necks but one adam's apple' thing is kind of freaking me out

Apologies if this has already been posted, but I spotted this one out in the wild the other day:

Ian Hunter - You're Never Alone with a Schizophrenic

I love the ones that come with quote marks around the title

My friend who's coming to town was telling me about how his gf might or might not be able to join us for dinner because she's also visiting some friends she hasn't seen in a long time and has limited time, and my first thought was "that's alright, she's got her own album to do."

Is "Flute and Nut" some kind of pun?

yes

sometimes I think about a sort of spinoff/cousin thread of jazz records whose titles are bad puns on the artists' names. Would be a long thread.

(would love to hear the mcnair record, only know his embellishments to mostly folkish stuff of the period)

1983 but Kenny Lynch will always be deep 70s to me...

Kenny Lynch ‎– Half The Day's Gone And We Haven't Earned A Penny

that doesn't look half as luxurious as I imagine it was intended to

Del doing this in hip hop, feel like there might be more:

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61jAYl7QAAL.jpg

(Wish My Brother George Was Here)

it's somewhere in the UK and there's no leaves on the trees, so it was probably about 5°C at the time too, brrrrr xp

I know it's just the loose plastic, but I prefer to see Bobby Shew as having a super thick and dark mullet.

No idea why Gareth Hunt is on the Kenny Lynch cover, and that looks like Suzanne Danielle in the purple on the right.

Some moderately famous names inside it as well; Rick Wakeman, Jim Capaldi, Keff McCullough, Valerie Masters, Zoot Money.

Definitely Suzanne Danielle.
