I'd give the Johnny Thunders one bonus points if it turned it wasn't even a covers collection.

My parents owned a copy of the Brooker record. Title song was a holiday mixtape staple. Still love the keyboard lead on that one

That one belongs more to the "Horrible pun titles based on the artist's name" thread, no?

Tuomas, Monday, 6 August 2018 07:18 (seven years ago)

Horrible album titles that pun on the artist's name

Tuomas, Monday, 6 August 2018 07:19 (seven years ago)

it does indeed, but seems like this thread has become catch-all for these

niels, Monday, 6 August 2018 07:30 (seven years ago)

I dunno, the other thread was last updated yesterday.

Tuomas, Monday, 6 August 2018 07:40 (seven years ago)

Not an album, but singer-songwriter Todd Snider's memoir:

A modern example courtesy of a Ned retweet:

Sorry, dude, but this was a very bad idea and it is going to rebound on you in a really ugly way. (Especially since your album is coming out in November.) If there's still time to scrap this title and cover, DO IT. pic.twitter.com/mjliBcafst

The guy hiding under the seat is a nice touch.

andrew m., Thursday, 23 August 2018 21:54 (seven years ago)

it's a real grey area between these threads I tell ya (xxxposts)

Scam jam, thank you ma’am (Sparkle Motion), Thursday, 23 August 2018 21:56 (seven years ago)

Horrible titles are usually more than three words

President Keyes, Friday, 24 August 2018 01:48 (seven years ago)

I enjoy seeing these old albums (and I’m grateful they’re posted here); but sometimes I get the sense from these threads that this is ILM’s platonic ideal of an album cover & title:

XP Naw, just window shopping vinyl on Reverb & eBay.

So, often when I look up the unknown-to-me artists that appear on this thread, like Bill up there, Discogs reveals

https://www.discogs.com/Bill-The-Bills-Bills-Bills-Bills/release/3338706

...it's a Canadian release. Is it the selection bias of my ignorance or might Canada have produced a higher proportion of these sorts records?

saddest kamancheh (bendy), Friday, 24 August 2018 16:20 (seven years ago)

Simple explanation is that Canada is the only country where the creation of these sorts of albums were subsidised by the government.
