Subject: Favourite Album Titles

Posted by: sectant
Date: May 04 18

Even if the album itself isn't necessarily one of your favourites, pick one with a title you think is cool or funny or clever etc.

I've always liked Dizzy Up The Girl by Goo Goo Dolls

It's difficult to choose just one favourite title. Here are some:
"The North Star Grassman and the Ravens" by Sandy Denny.
"Unhalfbricking" by Fairport Convention."Atom Heart Mother" by Pink Floyd, "Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake" by The Small Faces, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" The Beatles. "Magical Mystery Tour" The Beatles, "Rubber Soul" The Beatles."Let's Polka Steady" by Edward II and the Red Hot Polkas (There's a historical pun in that one).
"Songs of Love and Hate" by Leonard Cohen. "Hot Rats" by Frank Zappa.

MOODY GIRLS??? I promise I didn't mean to do that! The Moody Blues are my favorite band of all time! Not sure what happened there... sorry all, and sorry, Blues!

No problems SFJ
Next time I have lunch with Justin Hayward, I'll mention this. He has a terrific sense of humour, I'm sure he'll think it's funny.

Anything you want me to ask him? Signed copy of Days Of Future Passed perhaps?

I think the Moody Girls had an album called Days Of Future Parsnip

Meanwhile....Aladdin Sane by David Bowie. Good album title.

Nothing like showing me what a serious case of brain rot I've got going on, because I know there are a jillion amusing album titles out there, and I'm just about drawing a blank! I'll have to put some thought into this, but in the meantime........

For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge by Van Halen
Lights, Camera........Revolution by Suicidal Tendencies

Then there was this little ol' concert performed by the Metallicats called Cunning Stunts that I do indeed find quite amusing. Don't get tongue-tied on that one! :-p

Couldn't possibly omit this classic album title:
My People Were Fair And Had Sky In Their Hair...But Now They're Content To Wear Stars On Their Brows.

This is an album by Tyrannosaurus Rex, later known as T Rex.

sectant... if you happen to see Justin you'll have to pull a Wayne and Garth to Alice Cooper in the movie "Wayne's World"... "We're not worthy, we're not worthy!"
And please add he did great at his induction into the R&RHOF and I cried approximately a thousand times.

Here are some more from me:
-Good News for People Who Love Bad News by Modest Mouse
-Sleep Well Beast by The National
-The Man Who Sold the World by David Bowie
-Feed Me Weird Things by Squarepusher

Sectant, is the live version of "Miles of Aisles" where Joni says, at the end, something like, "Thank you for your presence and... being here and everything." That always cracks me up! Joni isn't generally at a loss for words like that.
