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?

seriously though that self-titled cover is fucking amazing, can't believe that's not canon "best album covers of the 70s"

This thread is better than many museums.

Speculating that there must be an album out there with a airbrush painting of lumberjacks felling a tree, perhaps with musical instruments as their axes, hollering the title, "TIMBRE!"

the nouveau chapeau cover would be at home on the 'band photos where one member refuses to play along' thread

Krokodil: Getting Up For The Morning

Duffy: Just In Case You're Interested

Psych bands should arguably be excluded from the thread as I think the intention of the cornball titles was meaningfully different - but still:

Lighthouse - Suite Feeling (1969) and Peacing It All Together (1970)

Stuff - More Stuff

that's a keeper

Stuff - Stuff It!

dunno why but i have this feeling Stuff are probably better than most of the bands in this thread, can anyone confirm?

(to wit, have been listening to and enjoying Lighthouse's One Fine Morning, the dollar purchase of which prompted the above posts. it's not bad if you're in the mood for some very optimistic and kinda corny/borderline bubblegum sentiment from your psych-ish rock bands. title track is solid, and there's a great dumb melodramatic number about families on the california gold rush.)

Kinda liking the Stuff It! cover - the frazzled hair, the way her white shorts make her top half look disembodied, the fact that "Stuff" in concentric circles is apparently their logo.

Krokodil's keyboardist Hardy Hepp cleaned up nicely for his solo career:

(the opening track is titled 'But Now I Have a Crow')

their drummer called himself Düde Dürst:

('Hahn' and 'Huhn' are German for 'Chicken' and 'Rooster', so the full title is Hepp - Chicken & Rooster: alive and good night)

(or Hen and Cock, if you wish)

wauw! what is the title of the second one? can't figure out the second word

I made sure to give the title for that very reason!

those are both ace

I made sure to give the title for that very reason!

oh i didn't see that! not 'wank' after all

Adding the exclamation point to Boys Will Be Boys! just makes it so much worse, for some reason.

Absolutely

Don't know why you'd call your album this but...

You never him.

there's a different version of that cover with TK feeding swans

into a wood chipper

I really shouldn't drink hot coffee while reading this thread.

<doug watson goes to conference room, sees it's a forgettable 1970s band named Hot Coffee, promoting their album "...With Extra Cream!?">

doug watson: Noooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!

Herbie Flowers - A Little Potty

Is there supposed to be some kind of a pun here, based on the adjective and noun meaning of "potty"? Shouldn't the guy be sitting on a potty then?

I thought "potty" meant "quirky" in English-as-spoken-in-England.

Maybe it's like, a little party, hence him being shrunk to mushroom size, but Herbie is also a little potty?

Ah, okay, I get it.

That's a little awful.

Maybe it's like, a little party, hence him being shrunk to mushroom size

i'm dubious about that. maybe there's a herb/pot joke going on there though

Doesn't explain why he's dressed as Noddy.

how was Dr. Heckle and Mr. Jive not made it here yet!

a title so good that Men at Work nabbed it for one of their tunes

Man this thread is like 5 solid years of #vnyl shipments

I would actually be stoked to get some of these records though!

At the very least, they'd make for a fantastic display rack

xpost hey I've heard four of those Braggin 1970s

'shazam' kind of the sore thumb of that list, thought it's pretty well regarded? (nb. i know nothing about the move's profile level in the us)

would not be surprised if the bs&t has already made an appearance, but...

wife's dad moved out of his house into condo and i got a box of (mostly terrible) records but this one is pretty good and is close to the platonic ideal of this thread

(fyi all the hardcover books have titles of the songs on the album, a nice touch)
