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

most of those read like the titles to stand up comedy specials

robert palmer - maybe it's live

I used to own that Stray Dog album, I remember not a thing about it. I think the guitarist went on to do the theme music for Thirtysomething.

Re: that Geordie cover I've never seen a picture of Brian Johnson without his AC/DC trademark hat

Landscape - From the Tea-rooms of Mars... To the Hell-holes of Uranus

pub rock seems like the native genre for this type of album title

Salt n Pepa - A Salt With A Deadly Pepa

Aw, Landscape. I really like "Norman Bates." Back cover really looks like a 90s hack job.

Be Bop Deluxe one jogged my memory! thx

Tim Abbott - Time & Space (not an esp wacky title I know but come on look at this thing)

The Now Playing FB group is a goldmine for this thread

wtf is that guitar strung in reverse!? the tuners are on the bottom!

dude haven't you seen a Steinberger?

now that you mention it perhaps that's not the most unusual feature of this guitar

Geordie also had 'Don't Be Fooled by the Name'

The Shirts - Inner Sleeve

(there is a hole cut out of the outer sleeve exposing that photo which is printed on the inner sleeve, so you've got that going on as well as the shirts/sleeve wordplay)

(The Shirts were such a great band, there should be more Shirts discussion on ilm imo)

oooh i like that

wtf is that guitar strung in reverse!? the tuners are on the bottom!

It's kind of funny to interpret this as "strung in reverse." It's not like strings have a nut end and a tuner end.

Salt n Pepa - A Salt With A Deadly Pepa

Kind of looks like A Salt With Arepa

Also, listening to Geordie - Don't Be Fooled by the Name on Spotify...this shit is pretty dope

geoff muldaur is having a wonderful time

http://eil.com/images/main/Geoff-Muldaur-Is-Having-A-Wonde-541303.jpg

never heard this, but pretty impressive list of backing musicians playing on it

just noticed it's produced by joe boyd, so that explains the presence of john cale and richard thompson

Wilderness Road, "Sold For Prevention Of Disease Only"

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51yC92AzzHL.jpg

ughhh

They're doing a public service. You see anyone depicted on the cover of this album, run the opposite direction and you have a good chance to avoid contracting any uncomfortable diseases.

Morgan - Brown Out

http://cdn.discogs.com/Ud2PTD0YAqoxxyn-rRyLHJD_C1I=/fit-in/496x500/filters:strip_icc():format(jpeg):mode_rgb():quality(96)/discogs-images/R-2703050-1297239431.jpeg.jpg

like 'black out' obviously, but is there another level to this that I'm missing? I can't help but feel there's some appalling joke that is going over my head. is he wearing a butchers apron? is that significant? this is a really good prog album btw

well "brown outs" are also a thing in themselves. but i admit i was hoping it was a reference to a member named Brown who had been kicked out of the band.

I hadn't heard of 'brown outs'! wikipedia has cleared this up anyway:

Morgan had signed a two-album deal with RCA, and in 1973 embarked on the recording of their second (and ultimately final) album, originally titled "Brown Out." The name of the album was later changed when it became apparent that the band intended to include an insert of the themselves mooning the casual record buyer.[1] Thus "Brown Out" became The Sleeper Wakes.

wiki also notes that the singer went on to make models for the Thomas the Tank Engine TV series

oh man original "brown out" cover concept is clearly one of the lost horrible masterpieces of this genre

clearly an homage to this steez:

B.B. Blunder - Workers' Playtime

I like that one

Can anyone confirm if Rocky Yagbag is indeed an Irish sex thriller?

i sadly note another opportunity just been wasted for tortoise to call their album 'songs the lord tortoise'

Must be the only time a camera ever caught Julie Driscoll smiling.
