I did smile at an MM picture caption that accompanied a live shot of Echobelly where the singer was dressed in a school uniform:

"Several captions suggested themselves, but we like our jobs."

Cover-mounted cassettes and, later, CDs sometimes had punning titles. I remember an electronic cassette comp (Leftfield, Orbital & co.) called "Bleeping with the NME". Can't fault that.
