Don’t know if this has been posted, but I saw it while digging through £1 bins yesterday and thought of this thread.

I posted it a while ago but am filled with inexplicable envy that you actually saw it in the flesh!

Chase Knobbe? Have you Courtney Cox? (Tom D.), Sunday, 22 July 2018 12:34 (five years ago) link

Should I have bought it? No, I suppose not - it was only £1 though...but it’s bought lots of cheapo folk albums anyway.

I took a photo of it, though I just posted art I found online...

This is a total Jeff Porcaro. (Doctor Casino), Tuesday, 31 July 2018 16:23 (five years ago) link

that's one of the killer finds in recent months

it's so great how in the 70s that's much effort and expense would go into the photo shoot for a fucking Gary Brooker solo album!

that one's just fucking creepy

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 31 July 2018 16:39 (five years ago) link

Bonus points since the title track also seems to be about going solo, having his own album to do.

I cottoned on to this a while ago but kept forgetting to post.

I'd give the Johnny Thunders one bonus points if it turned it wasn't even a covers collection.

My parents owned a copy of the Brooker record. Title song was a holiday mixtape staple. Still love the keyboard lead on that one

That one belongs more to the "Horrible pun titles based on the artist's name" thread, no?

Tuomas, Monday, 6 August 2018 07:18 (five years ago) link

Horrible album titles that pun on the artist's name

Tuomas, Monday, 6 August 2018 07:19 (five years ago) link

it does indeed, but seems like this thread has become catch-all for these

niels, Monday, 6 August 2018 07:30 (five years ago) link

I dunno, the other thread was last updated yesterday.

Not an album, but singer-songwriter Todd Snider's memoir:

A modern example courtesy of a Ned retweet:

Sorry, dude, but this was a very bad idea and it is going to rebound on you in a really ugly way. (Especially since your album is coming out in November.) If there's still time to scrap this title and cover, DO IT. pic.twitter.com/mjliBcafst
