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

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

guessing that frankie miller has a lot more to offer this thread

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)

Jack The Lad - Jackpot

http://www.recordsale.de/cdpix/r/roger_miller-making_a_name_for_myself(1).jpg

Making A Name For Myself (1979)

Wow... that is... I'm speechless... they don't come much better...

I've sort of specialized in abysmal UK nonentities of the 70s on this thread but I think I might have run out of them :( someone prove me wrong please.

lol at the making a name for myself cover... dog looks super embarrassed. A+

Oh Tom I thought you'd found an inexhaustible motherlode of abysmal UK nonentities, don't say the supply has ended.

Yeah, Making A Name For Myself is so good that it seems anticlimactic to post this one (don't think it's been done yet?)

'Hard Labor' by Three Dog Night

The title and basic concept make it seem like something that should fit here, but it comes out a little too disturbing and ends up looking more like it should Devo album cover or something? apparently this version was quickly pulled in favour of a censored edition with a large sticking plaster over the centre of the image

not sure if it entirely fits -- the title is just swarbrick 2 -- but I've always found the cover of this one kind of hilarious and halfassed

cigarette pushes it over the line into being appropriate for the thread imo

haha yeah, i love swarbrick

the swarb is awesome, but...

note the miniscule hands attempting to indeed lift the lid

Lol

Given Roger Millers sort of goofy sense of humor I suppose he really took to this type of album titling
