his 1978 album 'Turning Up and Turning On' probably deserves a mention as well

The Jackie Lomax album belongs on cover connections beside Children by The Mission.

At first glance I thought Wagon Tracks was by Genderswitch.

irl lol. Note however that the LP title is actually MACON Tracks.

There was some indie-pop band from the 90s (I forget who) that had a song called "Mike Love, Not War." Amazed he didn't get to that title first.

MaudAddam (cryptosicko), Saturday, 10 January 2015 18:11 (eleven years ago)

Smudge? Oranger?

Mike Love Not War was actually the working title for a solo album Mike Love recorded in the early '00s but never released, and it was also the title of this early '90s Beach Boys bootleg:

Oranger was the one I was trying to remember.

Squirt Does Its Thing

http://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4147/5434053121_74bc2aba7c_n.jpg

It took me awhile to figure out what this 1970 album of "semi-soft music" was all about.... it's a promo LP for the Squirt soft drink (that's what the green bottle in her left hand is), mostly Herb Alpert covers but also one original song called "Tequila and Squirt", how appetizing. I was wondering why the corporate suits thought albums like this one would spur sales of a fizzy drink, but apparently the success of Coca-Cola's "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing" spurred many attempts to replicate its popularity.

"Tequila and Squirt"

Worst buddy-cop show ever.

Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Sunday, 11 January 2015 21:21 (eleven years ago)

I just listened to this bangin' mullet rock from 1980 (but 70's-ish):

At least you can say the cover is memorable, if not artistic.

I kinda liked the first Point Blank album. Never heard the one you posted though.

If someone touches whatever's plugged into the orange cord with one hand and a metal fence with the other, he could die from electrocution....

this one is totally going over my head. is it some kind of double entendre re: 'screwing'? and they're holding car parts? help me out, someone

soref, Saturday, 17 January 2015 23:16 (eleven years ago)

Those are some big spark plugs...

Don A Henley And Get Over It (C. Grisso/McCain), Saturday, 17 January 2015 23:17 (eleven years ago)

Those are some exceptional outfits they have there. Digging the blend of too long and too short pants.

Free Me's Electric Trumpet (Moodles), Sunday, 18 January 2015 01:29 (eleven years ago)

well done soref, that's a great run there. "It's Better Than Working!" is so chummily dickish.

Doctor Casino, Sunday, 18 January 2015 02:41 (eleven years ago)

Worth pointing out for the non-Brits, the guy on the far left on the last cover wrote Can't Get You Out Of My Head for Kylie.

It's better than working is right up there with there goes the neighborhood by joe Walsh as an ideal of this type of album

Thank God for MTV.

I remember as a kid Dave Hill's hair genuinely angered me. Love Slade to death, though.

Don A Henley And Get Over It (C. Grisso/McCain), Monday, 19 January 2015 10:03 (eleven years ago)

Makes it sound like they didn't think much of the material they recorded for that one

walid foster dulles (man alive), Monday, 19 January 2015 17:29 (eleven years ago)

Boy, does that make you not want to hear the music. Imagine: the sonic equivalent of stained brown paper and forgotten takeout coffee going moldy in a dingy van!

Doctor Casino, Monday, 19 January 2015 17:46 (eleven years ago)

not to mention the inevitable bowel cramps in a gas station bathroom later that evenimg

I love that track, it's on https://worthopedia.s3.amazonaws.com/images/thumbnails/360/1211/10/360_e337fa510a1cd5eeb2151df676466eb3.jpg along with Kraftwerk's "Ruckzeug", a bit of comedy basically.
