He shreds, on this album at least, in a manner somewhat reminiscent of upthread Kevin Ayers right hand man Ollie Halsall.

Mick Fleetwood's Zoo: I'm Not Me

Oh man I looooooved "I'll Be Waiting" when it came out, and had completely forgotten about it in the intervening years. It reminds me of "Do Anything You Wanna Do" by Eddie and the Hot Rods. Both songs make me immediately want to do the pogo.

I'm Not Me is spot on: a solo-album-for-the-sake-of-it; horrible nothing title, horrible half-arsed cover.

Entwistle fired him after a US tour because Johnson kept doing Townshend stage moves during Ox shows.

1992 iirc but in their hearts it's always 1973

^^Having seen them twice at festival things, I can assure you that's true. Also: Their lead singer is ten feet tall & a yard wide.

Another idea for one:
Album title is "Punching In"
Lead singer or artist is punching a hole in the wall next to one of those old factory timeclocks.

In addition to the extraordinary graphic design and typography, and the horrible pun, and the gratuitous half naked lady, I'm trying to figure out what is actually being done with the balls on that cover that "takes a lot of balls."
― longtime caller, first time listener (man alive), Wednesday, 8 January 2020 18:48 (six years ago)
all those things you list "take a lot of balls" IMO

you need a lot of balls to drop that many balls
