I can't help but assume they had one photo of the guy and then just decided what to call the album based on the photo

Jim Horn image is very meme

lol

longtime caller, first time listener (man alive), Wednesday, 29 January 2020 15:35 (six years ago)

a lot of the "on the rocks" albums—and there are a lot—are pretty bad but not nec yawnsomely literal.

andrew m., Wednesday, 29 January 2020 15:35 (six years ago)

i would like them to be standing on surfboards on top of those rocks please

mfktz (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Wednesday, 29 January 2020 15:37 (six years ago)

the cover for wailing souls' on the rocks has me confused, however.

andrew m., Wednesday, 29 January 2020 15:39 (six years ago)

Bit late here, but: a flute is not a horn, Jim.

emil.y, Wednesday, 29 January 2020 15:39 (six years ago)

andrew m., Wednesday, 29 January 2020 15:39 (six years ago)

Jim's Horns and also Jim's Flute

"On the Bales"

Duncan Disorderly (Tom D.), Wednesday, 29 January 2020 15:43 (six years ago)

Jim's Winds

andrew m., Wednesday, 29 January 2020 15:44 (six years ago)

Anyone remember the one season mid-70s US television show On the Rocks?

TS: Kirk/Spock vs. Marat/Sade (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 29 January 2020 15:45 (six years ago)

Would shop at Jim's Winds for sure

wailing souls cover reminds me when my wife and i were looking to get some hay bales for a halloween party. her country-fried coworker says "you don't want hay you want straw-hay. hay-hay's got chopped up snakes and shit in there." i think of this at least a few times a year.

andrew m., Wednesday, 29 January 2020 15:48 (six years ago)

the lesson: ask for straw hay, people.

I'm very anxious about getting The Surfers double bass back to shore without salt water damage.

My computer might explode if I open all messages but was it this thread that had a big exploration of "Many Moods Of..." albums?

emil.y, Wednesday, 29 January 2020 15:52 (six years ago)

^ Albums covers that depict the artists hanging out with their clones?

Load up your rubber wallets (Tom D.), Saturday, 22 February 2020 23:25 (six years ago)

That one has always felt super corny to me because of the triple pun.

At the last minute, the art director got worried this wasn't obvious enough, so added some Bound Hands for contrast.

enochroot, Friday, 6 March 2020 02:23 (six years ago)

Has been posted before tbh.

The High Level Ranters, "Four in a Bar" (which I'm assuming is a musical pun, which makes it even better)

I've never contributed anything here but this might be the most consistently satisfying thread I know of. Bless you all.
