Billy Cobham - A Funky Thide of Sings
This one has had to have come up before, but I did not remember the album cover and it is a pretty memorable cover.

Best thing about that title is the misuse of the comma.

being the guy who is protesting that he's on the guest list for a Downchild Blues Band show is a pretty sad guy to be

Another idea: “Noodling Around” featuring guitarist playing strat strung with spaghetti. This has to already exist right?
Also back cover is him stirring a big pot of sauce with the headstock.

buried way way upthread iirc"Tablature Booklet Available For This Record" would have made a great one of these titles
― noel gallaghah's high flying burbbhrbhbbhbburbbb (Doctor Casino), Thursday, 7 June 2018 17:19 (six years ago) link
Some of these titles are neither horrible, nor similar to "I've Got My Own Album to Do"!

I think this thread has become a home for all corny dad joke album titles and album art that reaches for humor, and specifically those that have that particular ‘70s flair. It’s all good.

George Duke had so much integrity at one point. But the bigger they are, the harder they etc., etc.
― he doesn't need to be racist about it though. (Austin), Thursday, 7 June 2018 20:51 (six years ago) link
his solo albums were never super bangers imo
― kurt schwitterz, Thursday, 7 June 2018 20:54 (six years ago) link
His early 70s solo albums (the stuff that overlaps with his time with Zappa) are great.
― grawlix (unperson), Thursday, 7 June 2018 20:55 (six years ago) link
they are OK
― kurt schwitterz, Thursday, 7 June 2018 20:57 (six years ago) link
like they had good parts and one or two good tracks but so much filler. like dude you wrote this intro and then never play it again for the rest of the song? smh

Duke was at his best when playing with/ for others. His turn on Cannonball Adderley's 'Black Messiah' is pretty great.
