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

I believe that Lowell George is making a second appearance... which makes me wonder if anyone has done a record called "Seconds" with a picture of the artist at a dinner table by himself and a huge pile of food surrounded by empty plates.

There's something especially bad about food related ones. I'd like to see one called "Something I Ate Didn't Agree With Me" and it could be maybe a giant, monstrous fish fillet sandwich snarling menacingly at the artist.

I'd love to make some of these if just to start an "I've Got My Own Album Cover To Do" thread

Well, if we're moving into poor English (and food-related, sort of) I give you:
Now - Complaint Of The Wind

That is easily Lowell's third or fourth appearance with that cover, and I for one am always glad to see it come around.

"Meet Me In The Bottom" is an old Blues saying.

Roy Wood's Mustard is a great album, what has it got to do with this thread

"Meet Me In The Bottom" is an old Blues saying.

waht does it mean?

It's the river bottom. Low-lying alluvial land situated along the banks of a river.

I've only heard it in the southern US.

Not 80s, but damn this hair needs to be celebrated somewhere.

For a second I thought that LP was on Zappa's Bizarre label.

what's going on with the collar on his shirt? I kind of want a shirt like that

nehru collar?

yeah it's a nehru/mandarin collar.

Hope the inner sleeve has a from-above view of Ricky's hair, to provide the complete schematics of how it was engineered. I recall collarless dress shirts really coming into their own in the late-80s, usually accompanied by a tiny ponytail. Skaggs was out in front.

from the side he kind of looks like severely compressed burt reynolds

his hair is stunning what a work of art

I wasn't aware until just this minute that the debut album by Pilot is titled From the Album of the Same Name.

Spotted this weekend:

I've never seen that Raphael Ravenscroft, that's great.

Ravenscroft looks like proto-"So Not Gonna Happen"

His woman has only just realized he loves his horn more than her.

Kip Addotta "Life in the Slaw Lane"

Whoops, looks like Tom D. got to that Hummingbird album two years ago. This thread is getting huge.

Sleepy LaBeef ‎– It Ain't What You Eat It's The Way How You Chew It

this thread feels like an award-winning coffee table book

ravenscroft one is so quietly perfect for this thread

yes!

Is Michael Franks' one bad habit the little pinup in the locker there? What am I looking for here?

Also, I will be keeping my eyes out for a silk leopard scarf like the fella from Max Webster. That is tight.

Also also, figured out why Kip Addotta sounded so familiar to me. Dr. Demento.

I wonder what percentage of these album have title tracks?

(Raphael Ravenscroft "Her Father Didn't Like Me Anyway" is an early Gerry Rafferty song from when he was in the Humblebums with Billy Connelly.)

Art Garfunkel - Fate for Breakfast

Never been able to decide whether he's making a gun shape with his hand on that sleeve.

Sucking fate from his fingers I think

Wow @ Bob Williamson

per wiki: "The album was issued in five different sleeves, each with a different shot of Art Garfunkel at the breakfast table."

the local singer-songwriter section at my shop has some gold, immediately thought of this thread when i pulled this one out
