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

FJM one is so OTM

there's no literal depiction tho, like if he was in line at a waiting window or something it would show the bit of effort a lot of these have. it's no effort and too self aware. the best of these are entirely clueless and full steam ahead, like that Hard Labor cover, good grief.

Right. the 21st century is still waiting for its "Here's a Train."

Well it certainly is labored, that cover.

Mid-90s but with some 70s material compiled, I present Carl Palmer's "Do You Want to Play, Carl?"

"We need this Carl Palmer cd cover done stat and all I have is this black JPG... Don't worry, I'll throw it in Photoshop and have this ready in 15 minutes."

From '69 but worth a pop. Shep, "Have U Gone Bald Inside Your Head?"

From 1982, I like this one. Allan J. Ryan, "But What Does He Do?".

ha ah ha what is up with that shep record

i like how the face-inside-profile photo gimmick answers the question. shep, at least, is inside his head, and has not gone bald (though he might be combing it down in front a bit).

Hold on, the Allan J. Ryan album has disappeared on my browser, let's try this:

Bill Wyman's Rhythm Kings have a new album out - it's called Studio Time.

Any advance word on whether they wanted to capture the sound of 5 guys together in a room, playing?

lmao

I bet Van Morrison is jealous that Wyman used "Studio Time" before he could.

This is.... ....Rain

album title doesn't really fit the thread but i could not stop staring at that cover

it reminds me of "Here's a Train"

if they're still moving from strength to strength, Rain should be producing their best work right about now

Their new album: We're No Weathermen, But You Can Expect 12 Inches Of RAIN Tonight!

ewww!

Hillman Hall, "One Pitcher Is Worth A Thousand Words"

That is a heck of a suit the singer from Rain is wearing.

some great finds here lately. as always i guess. i've said it before but it's amazing we've been at this for six and a half years and the finds continue.

with god's grace this thread will run longer than the decade that bears its name

god that's good
