pretty sure that's Axis Bold As Love to the right of the red one

Emperor Tonetta Ketchup (sleeve), Friday, 17 May 2019 15:23 (four years ago) link

There's one there that looks like it could be a battered copy of Muscle of Love, but I'll bet it isn't.

the CSN debut album is on there

Not that I need an excuse to post a picture of Diana Rigg in her sixties prime, but struggling to identify some of the albums here. Sketches of Spain and Sgt Pepper are easy enough to identify, but the four on the right are a bit more obscure. Anyone have any ideas?

Dan Worsley, Monday, 17 June 2019 17:34 (four years ago) link

The one bottom right looks like Greek and appears to say
ΤΑ Μ... Λ... ΤΡΑΓ... (probably τραγούδια)
but that doesn't help a lot because that just means "the ... ... songs"

(have searched for e.g. τα μεγάλα λαϊκά τραγούδια, the great Laïko songs, but nothing similar came up)

a passing spacecadet, Monday, 17 June 2019 19:23 (four years ago) link

makes sense cuz the one on top appears to be greece as well

andrew m., Monday, 17 June 2019 19:32 (four years ago) link

Xpost Just realised the top one has a rough map of Greece on the sleeve, wonder if they’re all Greek.

Ah, one of the others in his discography looks like the blue one:
Ν. Καζαντζάκης* , Μουσική Μ. Χατζιδάκις* , Τραγούδι Γ. Ρωμανός* ‎– Καπετάν Μιχάλης

a passing spacecadet, Monday, 17 June 2019 19:44 (four years ago) link

I got most of these, need help with a couple.

Left to right: Twilley Don't Mind, (the one to the left of that may be the same as the one on the far right, which it seems like I know?), below Twilley ???, Talking Heads More Songs, Roger Daltrey, Dictators' Bloodbrothers, don't know what's below that, Graham Parker's Parkerilla?, and that far right one that's bugging me.

Ah crap, why does the watermark show up?

Oh, the far right is David Johansen.

it doesn't look like an album cover but the font/typography looks right

Between Dictators and David Johansen is Rachel Sweet "Fool Around" US cover.

Yes! That's the one I thought was The Parkerilla. I saw Rachel Sweet at this very bar.

Okay, well, good enough I guess.

So, I was wondering about the black and white album rear cover that is propped up behind the DJ (it's a still from 'That Thing You Do' btw) it doesn't look like a 60s record, kinda looks like the back of a John Hiatt record from 1985 or something, any clues?

Maresn3st, Friday, 13 March 2020 20:32 (four years ago) link

haha yeah that definitely does not look like an early 60s record!

Οὖτις, Friday, 13 March 2020 20:33 (four years ago) link

Yeah, which is maybe why they turned it around, but considering the insane amount of period detail in the movie it's funny.

Maresn3st, Friday, 13 March 2020 20:34 (four years ago) link

reminded me of Sting's Dream of the Blue Turtles but it isn't that

Struggling to identify any of these.

The Association, s/t, 2nd row down, 2nd along. The Charlatans directly below it.

The Corbynite Maneuver (Tom D.), Friday, 24 April 2020 21:30 (three years ago) link

"Hums of the Lovin' Spoonful" propped up against the skirting board to Bruce's left.
Laura Nyro, "New York Tendaberry" immediately to Bruce's left.
Andromeda, s/t, that kind of white circular design on the floor at the front.

The Corbynite Maneuver (Tom D.), Friday, 24 April 2020 21:37 (three years ago) link

"Nashville Skyline" directly above Bruce's head.

The Corbynite Maneuver (Tom D.), Friday, 24 April 2020 21:40 (three years ago) link

the one to the right of his right foot is The Association's Goodbye Columbus
