I can't find a good picture of it, but there's a Jack Bruce album called I've Always Wanted to Do This with a picture of a woman levitating above a couch

Frank Zappa produced that last Grand Funk album apparently, was wondering where Zappa's album titles fit with this stuff, kind of similar but a slightly different thing?

good call on zappa, he was in on the ground floor w/r/t titles that make you groan.

^^^ a rarities/b-sides comp, definitely closer to these titles than to, I dunno, the Beastie Boys' Some Old Bullshit.

Yeah that's got the vibe. Visual pun on dad joke

I must be an idiot but the Aerosmith play on words never occurred to me.

Naive Teen Idol, Sunday, 25 May 2014 04:12 (twelve years ago)

That Lowell George one had been kicking around awhile before it was used--it was a working title for the Sailin' Shoes lp.

Damnit Janet Weiss & The Riot Grrriel (C. Grisso/McCain), Sunday, 25 May 2014 04:39 (twelve years ago)

Can a mod change Horrible to Awesome in the thread title

Also I'm dumb & drunk explain aerosmith to me

dollar rave club (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Sunday, 25 May 2014 05:08 (twelve years ago)

Right in the Nuts

Naive Teen Idol, Sunday, 25 May 2014 05:10 (twelve years ago)

Fuuuuck this is like when I got Buck Cherry 5 yrs too late or Miles Prower from Sonic the Hedgehog

dollar rave club (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Sunday, 25 May 2014 05:11 (twelve years ago)

This is fucking up my whole worldview

dollar rave club (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Sunday, 25 May 2014 05:14 (twelve years ago)

^^Neil Schon's first solo lp, iirc.

Damnit Janet Weiss & The Riot Grrriel (C. Grisso/McCain), Sunday, 25 May 2014 05:38 (twelve years ago)

okay i stole it

riot grillz (contenderizer), Sunday, 25 May 2014 06:04 (twelve years ago)

Miles Prower

Had to say it out loud before I got it.

That reminds me of a character from the old Children's Television Workshop show "The Electric Company," a detective specializing in code breaking named Fargo North, Decoder.

Hideous Lump, Sunday, 25 May 2014 17:03 (twelve years ago)

omg, miles prower, you just blew my mind

Doctor Casino, Sunday, 25 May 2014 21:12 (twelve years ago)

Lowell George: music for Art History majors.

Okay, that's just hilarious!

/Miles Prower/

Had to say it out loud before I got it.

It took me saying it several times before I did. Jeesh...

That Joan Baez cover is just insane. It should be the flip picture on Black Sabbath's Never Say Die.

If I seized control of the US government I would force bands like Arcade Fire to do these kind of titles, like the whole band dressed in black and Win Butler dressed all in white, Arcade Fire - "There's One in Every Crowd"

Win Butler's solo debut, Any # Can Win!

Incident At Spanish Harlem (C. Grisso/McCain), Monday, 23 June 2014 01:31 (eleven years ago)

lol

Hier Komme Die Warum Jetzt (Hurting 2), Monday, 23 June 2014 01:41 (eleven years ago)

Win Butler's second solo album, The ______ Did It (cover features Butler in the center of the frame, being pointed at by a number of 1920s rich people.)

Incident At Spanish Harlem (C. Grisso/McCain), Monday, 23 June 2014 01:47 (eleven years ago)

hahahaha

Alternately, ''...You Mean, I Did It?!'' with the same setup, except Win's accusers are also clutching twelve-inch records.

Doctor Casino, Monday, 23 June 2014 01:51 (eleven years ago)

Grimes in bondage gear: "The Punishment Fits the Grimes"

Hier Komme Die Warum Jetzt (Hurting 2), Monday, 23 June 2014 01:54 (eleven years ago)

an Arcade Fire cover would have to have an Out of Quarters joke

relentlessly pecking at peace (President Keyes), Monday, 23 June 2014 10:26 (eleven years ago)

Win Butler - No Quarter Given

I must be an idiot but the Aerosmith play on words never occurred to me.

Or me. I assumed it was just some American thing I didn't understand (not unlike Aerosmith).
