Deep Ear

You really don't want to see the rest of the cover.

This cover art concept is great (if you get the reference); and the track list looks terrific: https://www.discogs.com/Various-Whole-Burbank-Catalog/master/321050

What’s the final song?!

I just got a copy of this one a few weeks ago and the answer is a stereo recording of a train going though a crossing.

groovy, lol... looks like a cool album to own, I may seek out a copy.

I saw so many of these at the record store yesterday, not sure if any of them have cropped up here before but

Mark Farner Band "No Frills"
https://proxy.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fecx.images-amazon.com%2Fimages%2FI%2F51gpZ4JJt9L._SL500_AA240_.jpg&f=1

Grisso posted "No Frills" this past summer; I somehow failed to notice how much it reminded me of this exchange concerning Leo Sayer's "Endless Flight":

"Endless Flight" should be a picture of him looking at his watch on a commercial airplane

― 'arry Goldman (Hurting 2), Monday, August 4, 2014 4:52 PM Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

Passenger next to him is either (a) a buxom, eyelash-batting rocker babe, with Sayer mugging wild-eyed ("can you believe my luck, with this flight being endless and all?") or (b) a yakking grandma, shoving unwanted family photo album into Leo's lap (with other distractions surrounding: shrieking baby, record execs, cigar-smoking mustachioed old money type, etc). However, if photo is really cheap, everyone can just be quietly perusing an in-flight magazine.

I feel like there might also be a bell-shaped tourist in an xxxl Hawaiian shirt, his gut spilling over the armrest onto Leo

...with an implausibly large sandwich, also spilling its guts.
