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.

Is the waiter unashamedly checking out Freda Payne's ass on that cover?

Roy Clark & Buck Trent: A Pair of Fives (Banjos, That Is)

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"

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.
