Directly in back of the cat is the first album by Cold Blood

Stormy Davis, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 17:43 (sixteen years ago) link

(and I caught that before the enlarged pic was posted) (which kinda seems like cheating!)

Stormy Davis, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 17:43 (sixteen years ago) link

Never noticed it before, but next to the whip hand:

Deep Purple-Come Taste The Band

C. Grisso/McCain, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 17:45 (sixteen years ago) link

also: Marianne Faithfull-Broken English

C. Grisso/McCain, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 17:45 (sixteen years ago) link

Is that a Residents 45 on the back wall, to the left of dude's hat? No idea, but it looks as though it might involve eyeballs.

And who is Jorge Dalto (lower right)?

contenderizer, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 17:46 (sixteen years ago) link

the whip hand thing is probably death in june, right?

i see blue cheer's s/t right over "lawrenc welk" in the first pic.

GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 17:49 (sixteen years ago) link

ah, death in june born again ep.

GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 17:52 (sixteen years ago) link

is that orange one with the big face on it, behind Quiet Nights, another Miles Davis record? It looks familiar.

Hurting 2, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 17:55 (sixteen years ago) link

JOrge Dalto is a percussionist .. played in Tito Puente's groups I believe

Stormy Davis, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:03 (sixteen years ago) link

Chambers Bros.-Time Has Come Today (behind the Collins)

C. Grisso/McCain, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:05 (sixteen years ago) link

hmm .. actually I think I got that wrong ... just googled and Dalto was a pianist not a percussionist. Guess I should leave the latin jazz questions to Rockist Scientist! altho i was right in that he played with Puente.

Oh, and that's the second, al kooper-less Blood, Sweat & Tears album in the back row (two rows up and one to the right of Sgt. Pepper)

Stormy Davis, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:12 (sixteen years ago) link

Bloodrock-2 (Below the BS&T lp)

C. Grisso/McCain, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:15 (sixteen years ago) link

Is that a Bangles 12-inch in front of Sgt. Pepper? It isn't an album.

C. Grisso/McCain, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:17 (sixteen years ago) link

Yeah. Walk like an Egyptian. I mentioned it way back.

contenderizer, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:19 (sixteen years ago) link

There's an Erasure record in there - 12" of 'Oh L'Amour' maybe?

Gavin in Leeds, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:20 (sixteen years ago) link

ahahah Mario Bros. mobile.

Whiney G. Weingarten, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:21 (sixteen years ago) link

I spy:

Inside Out - John Martyn

(two rows to the cat's left)

henry s, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:28 (sixteen years ago) link

Is that Graham Nash's Songs for Beginners to the left of the Death in June ep?

C. Grisso/McCain, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:29 (sixteen years ago) link

what's the one with the stoplight?

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:31 (sixteen years ago) link

'Let's Dance' is there twice, so to speak: the album is three to the right of the Bangles 12", the 12" single of the title song is to the immediate left of Buckley/Chapman

Jeff W, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:40 (sixteen years ago) link

Been wondering about the stoplight rec myself. Seems like something I used to see quite a bit.

contenderizer, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:40 (sixteen years ago) link

Some kind of fusion thing maybe?

contenderizer, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:41 (sixteen years ago) link

What's the one with the big yellow heart shape? Looks v. familiar - I think it's a greatest hits?

(P.S. this is fun!)

Jeff W, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:42 (sixteen years ago) link

Yellow Heart=Dr. Hook's Greatest Hits

C. Grisso/McCain, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:43 (sixteen years ago) link

two rows up from the whip-hand thing is 'Layla', no ?

Stormy Davis, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:44 (sixteen years ago) link

Yeah, it's Layla.

C. Grisso/McCain, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:45 (sixteen years ago) link

What's the thing to the left of Clapton's August? The font looks like 70s Kansas, but I don't recognize the cover.

contenderizer, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:46 (sixteen years ago) link

I checked and Songs for Beginners is the record to the left of the Death in June ep.

C. Grisso/McCain, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:50 (sixteen years ago) link

ooh, I think I can see Frankie Goes To Hollywood's first album in the bigger pic. It's a row or two to the right of Dr Hook and up a bit.

Jeff W, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 18:57 (sixteen years ago) link

think that may be the Purp's "Who Do We Think We Are" directly above the "Come Taste the Band"

Stormy Davis, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 19:02 (sixteen years ago) link

Got my cd out and would like to mention that Dan Fogelberg and Tim Weisberg's Twins Sons of Different Mothers is to the right of Broken English, and Foghat's Night Shift is above the Fogelberg.

C. Grisso/McCain, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 23:14 (sixteen years ago) link

About six down from the Fogelberg is some Hendrix album that has a B&W picture of his face. And ELO's Out of The Blue is on the top row five down from the cat head (and to the left of the Fab T-birds)

C. Grisso/McCain, Tuesday, 12 February 2008 23:21 (sixteen years ago) link

that would be one of the 'Essential Jimi Hendrix" records. Looks like the blue one, but I forget if that's Vol. 1 or 2.

also Cabaret Voltaire (Micro-Phonies, I think) below Shaun Cassidy to the left.

I am doing this from my LP copy, I wonder if the CD is different.

sleeve, Wednesday, 13 February 2008 03:04 (sixteen years ago) link

I'm guessing that the one leaning forward a couple shelves to the right of Broken English is Peter Gabriel's third.

eatandoph, Wednesday, 13 February 2008 03:06 (sixteen years ago) link

Flash Fearless and the something-something: '70s concept album, maybe multi-artist.

If Timi Yuro would be still alive, most other singers could shut up, Wednesday, 13 February 2008 03:56 (sixteen years ago) link

Is that Traffic's John Barleycorn Must Die on the far left in back?

sure looks like it -- mis-filed amongst the B's and the C's!

"Directly in back of the cat is the first album by Cold Blood

-- Stormy Davis"

yeah, when i saw that record in a shop years ago i recognized it from the endtroducing cover. i listened to it, there's actually a pretty nice but short break at the beginning of one of the cuts that sounds like something shadow would have jacked.

pipecock, Wednesday, 13 February 2008 04:29 (sixteen years ago) link

Directly behind the cat's head: We've Got A Live One Here by Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen

C. Grisso/McCain, Wednesday, 13 February 2008 16:02 (sixteen years ago) link

There's a China Crisis album on the top row in the same rack as Phil Collins. It's 'Flaunt The Imperfection', the blue and silver one that Walter Becker produced. It's terrible too BTW.
