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

Not a lot of heather on the South Downs, I reckon that’s a scam

Scam jam, thank you ma’am

I like the idea that Wilbury Jam literally has a single jar of Wilbury Jam that they just keep in the bassist's fridge for years and use every time they have a new record coming out.

Came across this one today. I think it's a pretty good cover but it seems like it still should be here. I think the cig is the cool detail and considering Porter was known for his glam style, a good twist. I'd figure it was Porter's take on Hank Sr.'s Luke the Drifter records.

Always happy to see that classic, though I think Porter’s album covers might be a whole other thread. This particular LP doesn’t have much to do with the preachifying Luke the Drifter iirc, though it’s a while since I’ve listened to either.

It took me a full minute to glean "...Sentimental Over You" from that previous one. Congrats Matt Catingub, you've set the bar.

Dave Valentin - Flute Juice

Is this an actual euphemism for spunk, or does it just sound like that?

Sounds like it should be but isn't.

i feel like this one may have broken the thread

That image is blocked for me at work. Hopefully he took the opportunity to name his album All Lanzon Deck.

You're missing out, believe you me.

I mean it's probably upthread somewhere anyway, but Lindisfarne - Nicely Out Of Tune seems to fit the bill.

The Cluster of Nuts Band - Fridge In The Fast Lane

Looks like CONB drew quite a bit of big league press attention with this release:

Produced in 1983, the Cluster of Nuts LP "Fridge in the fast lane" was released at the height of the 'new wave' of English Country dance music. The 'Nuts' were one of the batch of exciting new bands that had finally thrown off the shackles of "Steeleye" and "Fairport" to produce an exciting new sound.

"... folk music bubbling with ideas and enthusiasm ..." - Southern Rag

" Worth a spin on anyone's deck" - Hartlepool Mail

excuse me, proper acronym is TCONB. apologies

curious to learn more about the new wave of english country dance music, sounds like a pretty big deal

one for the literal album cover thread.

NWOBHM vs NWOECDM

Is the joke that the fridge only has booze in it? So it's like, a fridge living in the fast lane...?

i think this thread has the best first and second posts of any thread on ILX

1986 for this one, but too horrible not to post here.

BAREBACK BY RICHARD TORRANCE

ew

https://yatra8exe7uvportalprd.blob.core.windows.net/images/products/HighStDonated/Zoom/HD_100901158_01.jpg?v=1

There's also Bareback at Big Sky by Poco. Does "bareback" mean anything else besides what i already know?

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/96/Bareback_at_Big_Sky.jpg

tbf that's got a horse on it, unlike the one before.

i had no idea that was a horseback riding term. I'm such a city boy.

actually i didn't even notice that was a horse; i thought it was somebody spreadeagled on the floor

It was Poco's logo so it might still have nothing to do with horseriding. But Richie Furay was born again so I can't see him participating in anything untoward.
