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

Reposting as the previous link is dead: Hedgehog Pie - Just Act Normal. Is that really a pre-notoriety Peter Sutcliffe in the middle?

And let's not forget their Tony Capstick collaboration, "His Round":

haha hedgehog pie, what an amazing band name

I would have to believe that Hedgehog Pie would have a line in those UK band family trees going up to either Bloodwyn Pig or Jethro Tull. It seems like the name of some of the crazy outfits you never heard on those old 'band' family trees.

"just act normal" is a 5-star rock album title as well. tbh i admire their restraint in looking & acting normal on the cover, in lesser hands it would be one guy dressed in a tutu, or theyd be caught sneaking their guitars into the opera or something.

March of the King is the Jeff Beck Jethro Tull mashup 14 year old me thought he wanted but I'm pretty sure I do not want. Makes me grin for sure though!

The Lambton Worm is a step above the others, creativity-wise

I've got an older Geordie mate who always sings the Lambton Worm when he's pissed up (Hedgehog Pie were Geordies, by the looks of it).

I think there's a tangential Lindisfarne connection along the way, too

^^^this is kind of how i picture you when you post

Last one doesn't seem to have posted, reposting. Bluegrass is a treasure trove for these

lot of good ones ITT over the past several months

I hope that Glenn Frey cover has been xposted to the "Pics of artists looking smug" thread (isn't that a thing?)

It is.

I keep seeing adverts for Tion Wayne's Green With Envy on the tube and it reminds me of this thread.

just saw a Discogs listing for I've Got My Own Album to Do where the seller, clearly exhausted amidst a listing marathon, missed the visual 'joke' on the cover.

solid VG media. sleeve has sharpie over "S" in woods and cut corner 🔥**$5 UNLIMITED FLAT RATE SHIPPING IN THE UNITED STATES.** NEW RECORDS ADDED EVERYDAY**🔥

Just realized there a song called “Crotch Music” on that album.

this isn't strictly in line with the thread but i saw this and thought it should be shared with those who might appreciate it

It’s been a lifetime of searching - but I believe I’ve discovered the world’s worst song title pic.twitter.com/byIHOLikjT

big Wikipedia discovery: The Canadian hardcore band SNFU's discography is a treasure trove of album titles

...And No One Else Wanted to Play (1985)
If You Swear, You'll Catch No Fish (1986)
Better Than a Stick in the Eye (1988)
Something Green and Leafy This Way Comes (1993)
The One Voted Most Likely to Succeed (1995)
FYULABA (1996)
In the Meantime and In Between Time (2004)
Never Trouble Trouble Until Trouble Troubles You (2013)
Live albums

Let's Get It Right the First Time (1998)
...And Yet, Another Pair of Lost Suspenders (2019)
Compilations

The Last of the Big Time Suspenders (1992)

an impressive body of work!

"An Impressive Body of Work" would make a good best-of title. Maybe with a picture of a skeleton holding a Strat.

Or a big woman in a bikini, idk.

afraid to ask what SNFU stands for (not to mention FYULABA)

These have probably been cited, but Boston hardcore band Gang Green countered Van Halen's OU812 with I81B4U.

Society's No Fuckin' Use

Situation Normal: FUCKED UP

at least it's not ALL fucked up tho

situation the fuck up

wiki sez society's no fucking use and apparently "Fuck You Up Like a Bad Accident"

this is the only thread where Barbara Markay chat is happening, just wanna say after seeing "Give Your Dick To Me" appear on one of those "Worst Album Covers" I decided to look it up on YouTube and it's such a wonderfully catchy disco song

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zE4KowTk0C4

she has another one called "It's All Rite To Fuck All Nite", which is also awesome. the censored version is called "It's All Rite To Truck All Nite". how great is that??

I looked her up to see what she's doing today and apparently she's a New Age spiritual healer. her personal phone number is listed on her website! no mention of her early singles though.

via discogs:

American pianist and composer, born and raised on Long Island, New York. Started taking piano lessons when she was four and was awarded a scholarship to attend the Juilliard School of Music’s Preparatory Division when she was ten. Also studied violin later at the Manhattan School of Music.
She graduated with a Bachelor of Music degree in composition at the College Division of Juilliard.

A1 Eat Me
A2 It's Allrite To Fuck All Nite
A3 Huey's Bar
A4 Vibrator Blues
A5 Hot Chocolate Cock
A6 The Mother Song
B1 Sessame Snatch
B2 Glass Ass
B3 On Long Island
B4 Give Your Flesh To Me
B5 Whore House Blues
B6 Lesbians Lament
B7 John Denver Meets Cher

i got a cheap copy of 'it's all rite...' a few months back, it's great!

check her credits, she went on to write songs for michael bolton, carly simon and harry connick jr

there are actually a couple copies of Hot Box on Discogs. its not on Soulseek at all. I think I have to put in an offer for this. how else will I know what "Vibrator Blues" sounds like???

well there are track descriptions on the cover:

lol my $15 offer was accepted! hope it's a hot stamper!!

haha, enjoy!

ah fuck I should've crowdfunded it through that site on the vinyl scams thread!!!

lol the catalogue number is HOT BOX FU 2

frogbs i beg you for a ysi

I might have to figure out how to do it if indeed the album turns out to be good. I and I alone will make that judgment! It's my 15 dollars, ha ha ha!!!

She also was the brains behind this outfit:
