Gucci Mane Jewelry Selection (presumably a pun on Jury Selection, and it's not a bad title)

another sax-related one, I'm afraid:

Oh shit, just noticed that the Sparks one has been mentioned before on the thread. Sorry.

Have we had Ramsey Lewis' Tequila Mockingbird?

One I genuinely like is The 25th of May - Lenin & McCarthy. No better title for a group of scouse Marxists.
just dug out this album and gave it a spin expecting it to suck, and yeah, it's easy to rip into their EMF/Jesus Jones groove, however, there is a track, 'why?' that uses news snippets re hillsborough from the time that hits really hard.

I can't decide if the band name Neil Young and the Restless is really a cheesy reference to the soap opera or just a coincidence.

Double pun going on here - trombone and bossa nova? Bill Watrous With the New Bill Watrous Quartet, "Coronary Trombossa!" Also good of the Bill Watrous Quartet to allow him to play with them.

Like a lisping 'futurism'?

Don't know if this counts because it's: (a) the name of the band, and (b) arguably actually pretty non-awful, but it was years before I realised that Hayseed Dixie was a play on AC/DC.
― Bloody Snail, Sunday, 14 May 2023 08:11 (one year ago) link
The name is non awful until you find out that it's a pun and then it becomes awful.

Pitbull - Rebelution
Not only a bad pun, but a useless one - Rebel, Revolution, it's already the same thing dude.

Aren’t “b” and “v” sounds also kind of interchangeable in Spanish?

fits adjacently but i always get a smile out of beaucoup fish's uk-centric working title: tonight matthew, i'm going to be underworld. a hyper online producer shrouded in "y2k aesthetics" may wish to revive that one.
