Man I had to check Acme Thunder out on Youtube... that is a singularly terrible band right there. Like they took all of the wrong cues from southern, prog and hard rock and whipped them into a shitty frappe.

Young Essra Mohawk right there. Pretty unexciting album but I like the title "Arch Godliness of Purplefull Magic."

Wow

Blowout Coombes (President Keyes), Sunday, 15 May 2016 02:00 (seven years ago) link

I wonder if there was a shop that bands that wanted to get an Earth, Wind and Fire look could go, like some big B. Coat Factory for the the hip star child in you.

earlnash, Sunday, 15 May 2016 02:06 (seven years ago) link

was tipped off to their existence via a heathcote williams interview i read the other day. amazon review has me kind of curious: ...though the front cover displayed them as futuristic glam-rockers, Wilderness Road actually played a mutant hybrid of mountain music, psychedelia, rock, country and avant political satire

Great find.

I've come to the conclusion that as an album title, "Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols" sits comfortably in the tradition of this thread. And I'd love to see the cover re-imagined in the style of some of those featured here.

Georgie Fame - All Me Own Work

soref, Wednesday, 15 June 2016 00:16 (seven years ago) link

Been there, done that, I'm afraid. Has "Been There, Done That" been used at all?

Larry 'Leg' Smith (Tom D.), Wednesday, 15 June 2016 00:22 (seven years ago) link

... many times apparently.

Larry 'Leg' Smith (Tom D.), Wednesday, 15 June 2016 00:25 (seven years ago) link

... almost a separate thread in the making, in fact.

Larry 'Leg' Smith (Tom D.), Wednesday, 15 June 2016 00:26 (seven years ago) link

sorry, I just noticed you'd posted it when doing a search for Georgie Fame. search for "All Me Own Work" produced no results for some reason. good album, anyway.

GF also produced "No Worries", don't know if that's shown up yet
