Listening now- it's a comp of his soul-jazz stuff from the late 60s... smokes!

Hence the alternate title, Benson Smoker!

Needs a UK greatest hits record called 20 Bensons to be one of the canon imo.

Ten Benson also had an album called Benson Burner! But their best effort was 2002's 'Satan Kidney Pie':

loving the built-in cover connections between "Rightovers" and "Basic Glee." has there ever been an artist who used the same exact backdrop for every single album photo shoot?

It's probably like Bruce Springsteen or G'n'R releasing two albums at the same time.
― Hans Holbein (Chinchilla Volapük), Friday, 26 February 2021 17:40 (three years ago) link
RXH also has an album called "Tiers and Other Stories"
― Muswell Hillbilly Elegy (President Keyes), Friday, 26 February 2021 17:54 (three years ago) link
REO Speedwagon - "This Time We Mean It" - 1975
Somewhat surprising this hasn't appeared on the thread, given that another album by the same band is in the first post
― Hans Holbein (Chinchilla Volapük), Tuesday, 9 March 2021 07:51 (three years ago) link
Richard Heyman should do a record titled Nice Dick Heyman

That’s a great song. Mind, I really like his “You’re The Reason God Made Oklahoma” too.

I don’t really get the Rusty Wier one, but I posted another one of his on the Yawnsomely Literal thread because it is in fact awesomely literal
― Long Tall Arsetee & the Shaker Intros (breastcrawl), Sunday, 25 April 2021 22:12 (three years ago) link
I posted that one because it's just goofy, and I just saw both it & the Frizzell in a collection of tapes a retailer I follow on FB shared today.

Not entirely suitable for this thread as the title is neither here nor there, but Lindisfarne's 'Sleepless Nights' has a cover for the ages:

does it say “...and get lost in it” on the back sleeve?
― Long Tall Arsetee & the Shaker Intros (breastcrawl), Monday, 3 May 2021 17:12 (three years ago) link
xp
The Lindisfarne cover has a real "70s band marooned in the 80s" aura.

Not the title as such but rather the combination of title and album cover. Andy Bown, "Good Advice".

See also Sly's subsequent Bakc On The Right Track, which, commercially and critically, he certainly wasn't (though I prefer it to Heard Ya Missed Me..., tbh)
