Genius title.

They could have been Stackridge. (Tom D.), Monday, 11 July 2016 17:19 (nine years ago)

i love that album so much

it's so special in that i can't think of an album that is more a product of a certain time and place and mindset (and drugs)

Steve Gunn Mann-Dude (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Monday, 11 July 2016 17:30 (nine years ago)

full title should have been If I Could Only Remember My Name ... Oh Right, It Is David Crosby. Now, Where Are My Rolling Papers

tylerw, Monday, 11 July 2016 17:37 (nine years ago)

1983, but i think this fites:

Did we mention the new eric clapton album, "I Still Do"? Keeping the spirit of rock, blues and terrible album titles well and alive.

barbarian radge (NotEnough), Tuesday, 12 July 2016 07:55 (nine years ago)

Steven Tyler's new album is called We're All Somebody From Somewhere

Frankly I'd rather not if these guys were in the room.

Perhaps that's not quite punny enough for this thread, fortunately they also had an album called...

Edward Bear had albums? And were psych-prog? Would never have known this latter based on their one hit single.

The Professor of Hard Rain (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 23 July 2016 22:42 (nine years ago)

Saw these last week while browsing vinyl

I kind of like the title "Third Annual Pipe Dream"

Sharia Laws and Lambchop (The Yellow Kid), Sunday, 24 July 2016 18:54 (nine years ago)

It's been said before but GOD I love how this thread keeps delivering, long after you'd figure everything good would've been found. Great work, everyone.

Rory Block - I've Got A Rock In My Sock! (1986) This was more horrible and 70s when I was assuming Rory was the 'doctor' in this shot.

http://img.cdandlp.com/2015/01/imgL/3029986091.jpg

The Temptations - Hear To Tempt You (1977) Kind of bog-standard hear/here stuff, but the underlining kinda takes it over the top for me.

Silence, followed by unintelligible stammering. (Doctor Casino), Thursday, 18 August 2016 16:40 (nine years ago)

The "what are ya gonna do?" shrug and hand gesture that Rory is doing is what makes this one all-time, I think. Reminiscent of the hundreds of movie posters in roughly this vein:

Is "banjo sandwich" some kinda of a pun that I don't get? Like a wordplay on some popular sandwich type?

Tuomas, Monday, 29 August 2016 09:07 (nine years ago)

Those are some good ones. No idea what banjo sandwich is supposed to mean.

two crickets sassing each other (dowd), Monday, 29 August 2016 11:14 (nine years ago)

Apparently it's an egg sandwich? Or something related.

Their album title game is strong wow they cover all the bases

Pull your head on out your hippy haze (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Monday, 29 August 2016 13:25 (nine years ago)

on the one hand it looks like something some guy did on his laser printer in '94 but OTOH it's by a guy who once had an album produced by Lindsey Buckingham, so I consider this a major find for this thread

The bald Phil Collins impersonator cash grab (Joan Crawford Loves Chachi), Monday, 5 September 2016 11:35 (nine years ago)
