I got most of these, need help with a couple.

Left to right: Twilley Don't Mind, (the one to the left of that may be the same as the one on the far right, which it seems like I know?), below Twilley ???, Talking Heads More Songs, Roger Daltrey, Dictators' Bloodbrothers, don't know what's below that, Graham Parker's Parkerilla?, and that far right one that's bugging me.

Ah crap, why does the watermark show up?

Oh, the far right is David Johansen.

it doesn't look like an album cover but the font/typography looks right

Between Dictators and David Johansen is Rachel Sweet "Fool Around" US cover.

Yes! That's the one I thought was The Parkerilla. I saw Rachel Sweet at this very bar.

Okay, well, good enough I guess.

So, I was wondering about the black and white album rear cover that is propped up behind the DJ (it's a still from 'That Thing You Do' btw) it doesn't look like a 60s record, kinda looks like the back of a John Hiatt record from 1985 or something, any clues?

Maresn3st, Friday, 13 March 2020 20:32 (four years ago) link

haha yeah that definitely does not look like an early 60s record!

Οὖτις, Friday, 13 March 2020 20:33 (four years ago) link

Yeah, which is maybe why they turned it around, but considering the insane amount of period detail in the movie it's funny.

Maresn3st, Friday, 13 March 2020 20:34 (four years ago) link

reminded me of Sting's Dream of the Blue Turtles but it isn't that

Struggling to identify any of these.

Dan Worsley, Friday, 24 April 2020 21:23 (four years ago) link

The Association, s/t, 2nd row down, 2nd along. The Charlatans directly below it.

The Corbynite Maneuver (Tom D.), Friday, 24 April 2020 21:30 (four years ago) link

"Hums of the Lovin' Spoonful" propped up against the skirting board to Bruce's left.
Laura Nyro, "New York Tendaberry" immediately to Bruce's left.
Andromeda, s/t, that kind of white circular design on the floor at the front.

The Corbynite Maneuver (Tom D.), Friday, 24 April 2020 21:37 (four years ago) link

"Nashville Skyline" directly above Bruce's head.

The Corbynite Maneuver (Tom D.), Friday, 24 April 2020 21:40 (four years ago) link

the one to the right of his right foot is The Association's Goodbye Columbus

Ornette Coleman, "Chappaqua Suite", top right hand corner (that was driving me nuts!!!)

The Corbynite Maneuver (Tom D.), Friday, 24 April 2020 21:46 (four years ago) link

Nashville Skyline, doh how did I miss that?

Any idea what the one with the big moustachioed mouth is?

Dan Worsley, Friday, 24 April 2020 21:56 (four years ago) link

The one at the edge of the photo beneath his foot is The Stooges debut.

Dan Worsley, Friday, 24 April 2020 22:07 (four years ago) link

Mostly black album on the on the floor on the far left is Ars Nova s/t. Sorry should have probably posted some of these covers.

... a most unappealing cover!

The Corbynite Maneuver (Tom D.), Saturday, 25 April 2020 00:07 (four years ago) link

What was that phrase picture editors on the NME or Melody Maker used to put under pictures of unattractive bands? "Sorry girls, they're married!"

The Corbynite Maneuver (Tom D.), Saturday, 25 April 2020 00:15 (four years ago) link

Steve Miller Band, Your Saving Grace on the lower ledge, far right.

Cool, I was wondering what that was!

The Corbynite Maneuver (Tom D.), Saturday, 25 April 2020 00:38 (four years ago) link

Nice sleeve.

The Corbynite Maneuver (Tom D.), Saturday, 25 April 2020 00:39 (four years ago) link

First album on the 2nd row is "Family Entertainment" by Family.

Merryweather - Word of Mouth, between Mother Earth and Steve Miller

I cheated and managed to google it based on a description, being sure I knew it but just couldn't think of the name. Turns out there was no "Oh Yeah" moment.

Lower left looked like it said "The Savage Rose." Discogs.com, prove me right!

A Supremes box set (the Velvet longbox), and a Velvettes comp (under the Hathaway).

Some Belmonts comp on Ace over in the bottom right-hand corner.

xp: Velvelettes

I think the one under ray Charles is Street Signs by Ozomatli, but upside-down.

peace, man, Thursday, 23 September 2021 00:43 (two years ago) link

ooh, nice ozomatli spotting

fact checking cuz, Thursday, 23 September 2021 03:09 (two years ago) link

I see the TDK logo under Monk so I guess that's a CD-R

assert (matttkkkk), Thursday, 23 September 2021 07:35 (two years ago) link

I thought that might be Beck's Mellow Gold under Ozomatli, but I don't think it is ... but I'm saying it in case someone else can look closely and confirm that it, in fact, is.

alpine static, Thursday, 23 September 2021 08:17 (two years ago) link

I don't actually think so, but I can see why you would say that.

peace, man, Thursday, 23 September 2021 10:28 (two years ago) link

The one on the bottom of the Monk pile would probably be a good candidate for The Great Millennial Colour Drought but it is not included in that thread (unless as a broken link)
