I only realised after posting those that The Toast Of Christmas Past was released in 2013! Richard Digance, keeping the horrible 70s album title flame burning

why did Leo Sayer have a career? I have never understood this

Can't believe that no-one ever used it before (at least afaict), so I think if I ever made an album in the 70s, i would horribly title it Hot Dogs In Di's Car. Need to think about which terrible visual pun to go with for the cover art though.

re: that steve cropper, "Special Buy" would have been a good title for somebody as well.

Pretty much the best picture of Steve Cropper ever.

Even though this one's from 2000, I think the punny title matches the spirit of this thread.

A George Harrison cover: grainy old snapshot of a childhood trip to the beach, showing Little George standing proudly over a recently completed excavation in the sand. A painting of adult George holds the snapshot, grinning impishly out at us. I Buried Pail.

Were there any albums released in the 70s entitled "Phoning It In"?

Or "Will This Do?"

Best thing about that to me is the incredibly lazily tacked on "2 Bonus Tracks" from the CD version.

kind of curious what an Aynsley Dunbar album sounds like, although I don't have high hopes. He's a pretty sick drummer though...

I dunno, Axe Victim doesn't seem that relevant to this thread. Aren't we talking about banal album titles? If we're getting into a list of dodgy 70s album covers (for which Axe Victim arguably qualifies), I can offer a truckload of progressive rock albums.

doug watson, Thursday, 25 September 2014 17:47 (eleven years ago)

Axe Victim here as "visual pun on dad joke," surely?
