That looks like a good album.

This thread is coming up on its 10th birthday and I couldn't be more pleased.

Listening now- it's a comp of his soul-jazz stuff from the late 60s... smokes!

Hence the alternate title, Benson Smoker!

Needs a UK greatest hits record called 20 Bensons to be one of the canon imo.

Well *I* know who he is (aldo), Thursday, 25 February 2021 18:33 (five years ago)

Ten Benson also had an album called Benson Burner! But their best effort was 2002's 'Satan Kidney Pie':

"what are you DOING to fleetwood mac??" (C. Grisso/McCain), Friday, 26 February 2021 15:11 (five years ago)

loving the built-in cover connections between "Rightovers" and "Basic Glee." has there ever been an artist who used the same exact backdrop for every single album photo shoot?

It's probably like Bruce Springsteen or G'n'R releasing two albums at the same time.

Hans Holbein (Chinchilla Volapük), Friday, 26 February 2021 17:40 (five years ago)

RXH also has an album called "Tiers and Other Stories"

Muswell Hillbilly Elegy (President Keyes), Friday, 26 February 2021 17:54 (five years ago)

REO Speedwagon - "This Time We Mean It" - 1975

Somewhat surprising this hasn't appeared on the thread, given that another album by the same band is in the first post

Hans Holbein (Chinchilla Volapük), Tuesday, 9 March 2021 07:51 (five years ago)

Richard Heyman should do a record titled Nice Dick Heyman

it's like edging for your mind (the table is the table), Monday, 15 March 2021 21:53 (five years ago)

Or one called Nice Shot.

David Frizzell literally had his own album to do.

That’s a great song. Mind, I really like his “You’re The Reason God Made Oklahoma” too.

Tim, Sunday, 25 April 2021 22:06 (five years ago)

I don’t really get the Rusty Wier one, but I posted another one of his on the Yawnsomely Literal thread because it is in fact awesomely literal

Long Tall Arsetee & the Shaker Intros (breastcrawl), Sunday, 25 April 2021 22:12 (five years ago)

I posted that one because it's just goofy, and I just saw both it & the Frizzell in a collection of tapes a retailer I follow on FB shared today.

Not entirely suitable for this thread as the title is neither here nor there, but Lindisfarne's 'Sleepless Nights' has a cover for the ages:

does it say “...and get lost in it” on the back sleeve?

Long Tall Arsetee & the Shaker Intros (breastcrawl), Monday, 3 May 2021 17:12 (five years ago)

The Lindisfarne cover has a real "70s band marooned in the 80s" aura.

Be a good title if it was by someone other than Albert Finney tbf.

Not the title as such but rather the combination of title and album cover. Andy Bown, "Good Advice".
