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

I don't know his later albums but his 70s albums are great.

They are; his productions on others are just as good IMO, but don't tend to have such thread-worthy titles.

He did one a couple of years ago that was full of autotune and still pretty great

I haven't heard that one but the cover art is awesome. kinda curious about the slew of mostly self-released '80s-'00s Swamp Dogg albums that virtually nobody has heard. I kept seeing the same used copy of Surfin' in Harlem at my local record store for about 5 years but never had a strong enough impulse to buy it

Give 'Em As Little As You Can As Often As You Have To

is p perfect, definitely has the going through the motions vibe that these titles have

i haven't heard the vast majority of swamp dogg's work but for whatever reason "love, loss, and auto-tune" did cross my radar, possibly due to someone saying "no look this is fantastic", and whoever said that is right! he's got a duet with his auto-tuned self, he closes with an auto-tuned take on "stardust", he just has this knack for bringing out the best in anything he works with

swamp dogg should have a bigger cult than he does, the man is a national treasure. does he even have a dedicated thread here?

Tell me about Swamp Dogg

I interviewed him for Love, Loss & Autotune, he was such great company. He's good frends with Bon Iver now, afaicr.

checking out Total Destruction To Your Mind right now (there are some twofer reissues on Spotify), it's pretty hot so far

Toucan Do It Too

now that's a groaner

Dramatis, "For Future Reference". Very much 80s and also very much a generic crappy album title.

I was surprised Bentley Rhythm Ace had such retro looking album covers until I looked a little more closely.

I had a dream last night that I released an album called "Why Are You Still Here?" and posted it on this thread

I had a dream months ago about making an album cover called "The Quiet Life", where I'm sitting in a large chair holding a martini in an exaggerately relaxed pose sort of giving a "cheers" to the camera, while behind me a circus is passing by with elephants, jugglers, people crashing enormous cymbals etc. I blame this thread seeping into my subconscious!

that Dramatis album cover is such a thing from that era - I have many childhood memories of flipping through my dads record collection and seeing endless album covers that were just band members fucking standing in a generic room with various objects in it.

zappi - now's the time to realize your dream

(it was his last)

Seems like he got William Wilson'd by Billy.

Wow, is that the first time this has appeared on this thread? It seems like it should be a founding member. Even has the ellipsis, the font, it's so perfect.

No, never seen before! Shares a certain poignancy with this favourite of mine:

Paul Bogush, Jr., Expect to Hear From Me Again!

no idea what this means but

https://i.ibb.co/5kJ7LVS/hounds.jpg

Hounds - Puttin' On The Dog

Joel has strong Bill Hader satire vibes.

That Paul Bogush album was produced by Larry Carlton! Not one you'll find near the top of his CV.

i do not understand that bob king cover. not a lick of it.

DYING @ the little circle pointing himself out on the cover of the Joel album, god status, incredible
