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

idk that glass looks like it has a little vinnegar in it to me

it includes the track "damn! somebody stole my pants"

Joe Vitale - Speaking in Drums (2008)

for a second there, I thought the album cover was a picture of someone holding the CD, which struck me as truly next level.

Haha, me too

former penguins fourth-liner; had no idea

haha yeah I couldn't find any decent regular pictures of just the cover, except a ginormous screen-shattering jpeg on amazon. which was tempting i admit.

'i've got my own album to do' was released 45 years ago today

Happy birthday I've Got My Own Album to Do! Five years old now but I guess this'll do? (has anyone done an album called 'I Guess This'll Do'?)

"Rod said 'Well why are you doing (your own album)? It's going to be a bit of a schmeddle'"

I just realized I've been thinking I've Got My Own Album To Do was a Bull Wyman album this whole time

*Bill Wyman

"Wyman? I dunno."

"I've Got My Own Album to Do" could only be a Ron Wood album, it's too perfect.

Another title idea:

...Well Actually I've Been Working On A Solo Album

Or a solo album by a drummer: Guys, I Wrote Some Songs

Album cover is other band members making their way out of the room as he speaks up from behind the drumset

I'd be surprised if Country Gazette hadn't shown up itt yet...

John Scoggins: Pressed For Time

^cover should be a graphic of him being fed into a juicer, with little clock faces falling out the other end

That would be the Yawnsomely Literal album cover thread.

is he playing, fully clothed, to an audience of nudists? is that the joke?

he's playing at MIDSOMMAR and is about to be pressed into a bear suit

not soon enough AMIRITE

I see jeans in there, maybe something to do with a Polaroid photo?

Googled it to read the cover writing for more clues (which is not part of the LP design) and found this.

https://aquariumdrunkard.com/2017/03/14/john-scoggins-pressed-for-time/

"The existence of the ‘tax scam’ LP is one of the stranger tales of the 1970s record business. In short, crooked label heads would press up demos of unsigned artists, outtakes from known artists, and other various ephemera in limited quantities that were thrown out into the market with zero promotion — all based on the hopes of commercial failure and the ability for the ‘label’ to write off the failure as a loss.

John Scoggins’ Pressed For Time is one such record..."
