whale meat again?
― soref, Sunday, 23 November 2014 20:32 (nine years ago) link
Oh, I've just looked it up and realised that's what the album is actually called. but it's a pun on 'we'll meet again' isn't it? do ppl know that song in the US?
― soref, Sunday, 23 November 2014 20:37 (nine years ago) link
The Byrds covered it on their first album.

I was wondering if it's best known through Dr Strangelove over there?

That's where the Byrds heard it

"Whale meat again" is the punch line of an ancient joke

Xp Or maybe it was just its use in Dr Strangelove that inspired them to close the album with it.

^^In the liner notes to the album there's a dedication to Kubrick, so yeah.

The song wasn't called "Born To Be Mild" (which would have been a great Rupert Holmes title born to this thread).

Oh, so there's a copy of I've Got My Own Album To Do at my local alleyway shop, with a very flattering employee-pick sticker on it. The tracklist is pretty promising too. I think it was around eight bucks or I woulda just snapped it up. Is this actually a good album y/n?

The connection to Cliff Richard is that this Garth Hewitt guy was a sort of Christian rocker, though the thing is really messing with my head is that Bryn Haworth plays on the album too and I thought HE was Garth Hewitt (and vice versa).
― Root It Oot (Tom D.), Friday, 12 December 2014 20:58 (nine years ago) link
Oh, hold on, it gets worse, I just checked Bryn Haworth on wiki and he's a Christian too.

Of course, 'Acquiring the Taste' is not in and of itself an outright horrible title, but when coupled a cover depicting the thinnest of thinly veiled allusions to salad tossing it adds up to a true prog grossout as only could have been produced in the 70s.
