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

King of Hearts - Close But No Guitar

awesome

Okay, wait! I've never seen that Gasolin album cover, which wiki attributes to Tage Hansen, but I certainly recognized the image. It, and others similar, are on this great site dedicated to not-very-good pinup artist Art Frahm.

Close But No Guitar is an all timer

http://img1.imagilive.com/0415/71w7QV59nkL_SL1436_1.jpg

admirable restraint in not spelling it 'bassics' or showing the back of the bass

classic back-to-skool chalkboard font though, full marks for that

tracklist is pretty good
1. What & If & When & Why
2. I Lost My Ring
3. Love, Love, Love
4. Stuff (Can't Get Enough)
5. Running Back To You
6. She's Wonderful
7. Seventeen
8. I'll Pull You Through
9. November
10. Just A Friend Of Mine
11. It's A Lovely Day
12. I Got Time
13. Exciting (Bonus track for Itunes only)

13. Exciting (Bonus track for Itunes only)

Would be better if the whole thing was within the parentheses:

(Exciting Bonus Track For iTunes Only)

7. Seventeen

Glad to see, as the years advance, Bill showing an interest in the more mature woman.

Wyman is one of the key originators of this genre, glad to see he's dedicated to seeing it through.

That was the name of his autobiography as well as the album. A title so good, he decided to use it twice!

'Back to Basics' gets minus points for not having him standing there with his back to the camera.

let's not fully judge til we see the back cover

Billy Thorpe & the Aztecs - More Arse Than Class

http://www.spirit-of-metal.com/les%20goupes/A/Aztecs/More%20Arse%20Than%20Class/More%20Arse%20Than%20Class.jpg

"Whatever Turns You On" has been posted before but it really is one of the best in thread IMO, never gets old.

I spotted a couple of borderline cases while rummaging yesterday, let me see...

Harry Chapin - Living Room Suite (1978)

Harry Chapin - Heads & Tales (1972)

(honorable mention: his Sniper and Other Love Songs, also 1972)

Johnny Carver - Double Exposure (1974)

http://userserve-ak.last.fm/serve/500/52009405/Turn%2BOf%2BThe%2BCards.jpg

Renaissance - Turn of the Cards (1974)

Also thought about The Association - Insight Out but that's '67 and probably does come from a different place.

I meant to point out that the Aztecs album has a gatefold cover, inside can be seem here, possibly nsfw:

https://www.themonthly.com.au/sites/default/files/m/thatblockheadthing.jpg

that one is from 1974, but this style of album title seems to have remained hale and hearty in Australia for at least a decade or so after mostly dying out in the rest of the English speaking world

arse and class rhyme in Aus?

say 'ass' loudly through your nose...it will make sense

got it, got it, the nasal thing

say 'ass' loudly through your nose...it will make sense

doesn't really explain angus young to me

According to Eddie Hardin, you can't teach an old dog new tricks:

And yet:

(I've posted that Philip Goodhand-Tait album before but I like that cover!)

And here's an album by Eddie Hardin's mate, Ray Fenwick:

Stephen Stills - Illegal Stills

I agree, Stephen Stills should be illegal

Sho-Nuff: From the Gut to the Butt

i can think of something else that follows a similar route

Just mentioned on the debut albums thread, from 1971:

Gerry Rafferty - Can I Get My Money Back?

Oh, so there's a copy of I've Got My Own Album To Do at my local alleyway shop, with a very flattering employee-pick sticker on it. The tracklist is pretty promising too. I think it was around eight bucks or I woulda just snapped it up. Is this actually a good album y/n?

i snagged it btw, and having finally got a replacement belt for my replacement turntable, i'm giving it a spin, and, two tracks in, i feel comfortable saying he did, indeed, have his own album to do.

meanwhile, from yesterday's browsing:

Free Beer - Nouveau Chapeau (1977)

Unfortunately:

When Elvis died in 1977, RCA let many acts go, choosing instead to focus on repackaging 'The King'. The members of 'FREE BEER' decided to pack it in but have remained friends and in touch and continue to pursue performing and songwriting careers. However, recent interest in the band has motivated this site, and who knows what else?
