I think the ad answers the question posed somewhere upthread about the true derivation of the album's title

I love that Ned Miller's designed to look like the back cover

I actually always kinda liked the title of this one: You Can't Beat Your Brain for Entertainment. The art doesn't really pertain though.

I like the idea that Wilbury Jam literally has a single jar of Wilbury Jam that they just keep in the bassist's fridge for years and use every time they have a new record coming out.

Came across this one today. I think it's a pretty good cover but it seems like it still should be here. I think the cig is the cool detail and considering Porter was known for his glam style, a good twist. I'd figure it was Porter's take on Hank Sr.'s Luke the Drifter records.

Always happy to see that classic, though I think Porter’s album covers might be a whole other thread. This particular LP doesn’t have much to do with the preachifying Luke the Drifter iirc, though it’s a while since I’ve listened to either.

It took me a full minute to glean "...Sentimental Over You" from that previous one. Congrats Matt Catingub, you've set the bar.

Is this an actual euphemism for spunk, or does it just sound like that?

That image is blocked for me at work. Hopefully he took the opportunity to name his album All Lanzon Deck.

I mean it's probably upthread somewhere anyway, but Lindisfarne - Nicely Out Of Tune seems to fit the bill.

The Cluster of Nuts Band - Fridge In The Fast Lane

faust apes (NickB), Friday, 22 December 2017 17:04 (six years ago) link

Looks like CONB drew quite a bit of big league press attention with this release:

Produced in 1983, the Cluster of Nuts LP "Fridge in the fast lane" was released at the height of the 'new wave' of English Country dance music. The 'Nuts' were one of the batch of exciting new bands that had finally thrown off the shackles of "Steeleye" and "Fairport" to produce an exciting new sound.

"... folk music bubbling with ideas and enthusiasm ..." - Southern Rag

" Worth a spin on anyone's deck" - Hartlepool Mail

excuse me, proper acronym is TCONB. apologies
