Horrible 70s album titles like I've Got My Own Album To Do

Is that real?

afaict

If you're going to use VAR and have more penalty retakes etc - and more penalties in general - then you have to be prepared to allow matches to last 100 minutes, unlike the officials last night.

OTM

Hoping that's one of Liam's song titles.

further evidence that this thread is becoming the ILX singularity

LOL.

Posting on a phone, eh?

Why Me? Why Not.
Side 1, track 1: Posting On A Phone

This one sort of fits

Listening to Wish You Were Here for the first time in like five years because PINK FLOYD RULES.

just occurred to me that this is totally one of these album titles if it were paired with less serious album art (or less self serious band)

lol

Badfinger actually beat Floyd to that title by a year or so.

haha perfect

This ‘90s title is a very pure example of the thread premise:

LOL @ cranberries, perfect example. Feel like the 90s were kind of a soft renaissance for this thing

what's interesting is how the same types of titles conveyed a subtly different message in the age of irony, ennui goth teens, and 2-3 years between albums-as-calling-cards, versus just cranking out another couple sides of blues rock whatever to sell on the tour.

Yeah its funny to compare the way the they read btw the two eras. In the 90s it was meant to convey this knowing wink at consumerism & let you know that they saw through the whole showbiz game & were savvy postmodernists. Whereas the aw-shucks 70s titles had this endearing humility thing like "Yeah I'm dumb & this album kind of sucks, what do you want from me, take it or leave it"

the aw shucks album title kinda lived on in the 90s with third wave ska, complete with the albums kinda sucking

"don't blame me," with the cover, is easily top 50 for the thread. joe walsh couldn't have done it better.

The Whitesnake connection means it's time for a reposting of this beauty:
