A George Harrison cover: grainy old snapshot of a childhood trip to the beach, showing Little George standing proudly over a recently completed excavation in the sand. A painting of adult George holds the snapshot, grinning impishly out at us. I Buried Pail.

Were there any albums released in the 70s entitled "Phoning It In"?
― 'arry Goldman (Hurting 2), Tuesday, 9 September 2014 16:44 (nine years ago) link

Best thing about that to me is the incredibly lazily tacked on "2 Bonus Tracks" from the CD version.

kind of curious what an Aynsley Dunbar album sounds like, although I don't have high hopes. He's a pretty sick drummer though...

I dunno, Axe Victim doesn't seem that relevant to this thread. Aren't we talking about banal album titles? If we're getting into a list of dodgy 70s album covers (for which Axe Victim arguably qualifies), I can offer a truckload of progressive rock albums.
― doug watson, Thursday, 25 September 2014 17:47 (nine years ago) link
Axe Victim here as "visual pun on dad joke," surely?

It's a pity the Ozark album is spelled out, we should refer to The Car Over The Lake album like we do The Black Album, White Album etc

j-tull.com is a double winner for terrible album titles and awful album covers. Also I once gave it a taste at one of those tower records listening stations and I have a clear memory of it being equally dreadful.

the Magic! - Don't Kill the Magic one sucks because the cover is just their band logo instead of the lead singer dressed up as a magician in a tuxedo holding a top hat & a rabbit standing up on the gallows w/a noose around is neck and the whole crowd cheering him on while the hangman is all ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
