Horrible 70s album titles like I've Got My Own Album To Do

Hey I just realized I never reported back on that Barbara Markay "Hot Box" album. I was disappointed to find it's a solo piano comedy album without the disco band that was on the singles. It's basically a bunch of dirty showtunes with a singer who sounds like Lamb Chop. That said it's cool to own something that basically doesn't exist online. nor should it really :)

Is she truly “A cross between Carly Simon and Lenny Bruce (Daily News)”?

honestly its probably more Andrew Dice Clay

now the holy grail is the Japanese "Give Your Dick To Me" 7-inch, cuz I mean just look at this cover

My first thoughts were Sly Stone's Heard Ya Missed Me, Well I'm Back and Andy Bown's Come Back Romance All Is Forgiven, but both have been mentioned, unlike:

Olympic Runners - Put the Music Where Your Mouth Is
Nicky Hopkins - The Tin Man Was a Dreamer

"Big Daddy, I juss neeeeds to get me a hawt air balloon ride to be able to make proper entry into my Spring Cotillion Ball. Please make it so Papa."

Barbra Streisand...and Other Musical Instruments

It's hard to search all 3,824 posts, esp. when album cover images are posted with no accompanying text for when all the images eventually disappear.

You're supposed to keep it all in your head
(would make a good album title!)

lol

"I Didn't Know There Would Be a Test"

It's hard to search all 3,824 posts, esp. when album cover images are posted with no accompanying text for when all the images eventually disappear.

True... but not in this case because I posted it originally and I always include the artist/title. How else do you think I remembered it!

D'oh! I guess it helps to open the 3,729 skipped messages!

You can use the sitewide search facility, but only if the title is something like "We May Be Cattle But We've All Got Names", which is somewhat unlikely to have been used very often.

Wow, that is extra terrible

Does No Guru, No Method, No Teacher (1986) fit in this thread?

Yes, I thought I'd seen it before and I also agree that it's quite witty.

king biscuit boy - "gooduns"

Horrible

Awesome how he pushed aside his blues name to go for the big pun on the album title. Plus 1 for looking like he's doing the Clinton thumb-fist gesture there in 1994.

It’s funny because Urban Renewal destroyed Maxwell Street, one of America’s blues crucibles.

+1 for Meet Their Maker being good - esp if those are their real moms, which I assume they are

Roy Gaines- Gainelining

Oof, that one needs to go on the shit drawings of guitars thread.

A.C. Reed one is top notch.

yeah that's great. especially with how the motion blur on the sax does not make it look at all like it's headed for the trash can.

Right, it is overshooting.

I'm looking at the back cover and trying to read the liner notes to see if I'm missing some clue as to what business would be more appropriate for Mr. Reed.

I’m listening to the song on Spotify—
Some of the other professions he wishes he’d chosen are being Mr. T or driving a truck.

David Townsend - Making Up The Numbers.

^ his main claim to fame was that he wrote 'miss you nights' for cliff richard, which was also later covered by art garfunkel

(i didn't buy it btw)

Must be a really skinny guy, look how that (slim) suit hangs on his frame.

Very subtle, I like it.

a masterful trilogy from lee towers here - 'definitelee', 'sincerelee', and 'absolutelee':
