Funny Names For Albums

[SmileySam]

Here's one:

A band decides after a period that they are changing their style from rock to folk, and as they do so, the title of the next record signals that new direction and also suggests that other great artists take that direction in music as well. The title of the album is called

GO FOLK, YOURSELF

[The Heartical Don]

Hehe -

on another board, long ago, there was a thread where only a very minor change, i.e. leaving out just one vowel, in an existing album title was allowed. Then you had to comment on why that change made sense.

One of my entries:

Sly And The Family Stone: There's A Rot Going On. (Sly realizes that not everything is well in his drug-addled brain.)

Haha....

The Beach Boys - Smile Smile (Brian Wilson believed the follow up to Pet Sounds is twice the album the reported Smile project was)

Sufjan Stevens - The BQ (Stevens' scathing attack on the oil company scuppered by a hungover intern at the record label)

The Beach Boys - T'day! (Capitol's attempt to corner the Austrailian market in 1965)


As for funny album titles, my friend and I used to joke that if we started a band, we would name ourselves Eponymous Anonymous, and 'do a Zeppelin' and name every album the same... we were fifteen, so I'm not sure how funny it actually is now, but still.

The Beatles - Elp

(They just know that after their career will have ended, symphonic rock is just around the corner...)

The *igger Problem.

I know we're just making titles up, but there is an album titled "You Broke My Heart, So I Busted Your Jaw". I can't remember who did it though. Funnily enough, at a concert way back in 1954, Elvis introduced a song as "Little Girl You Broke My Heart, But I'll Bust Your Jaw When You Come Back".

I am fond of: Satan Is Real, by the Louvin Brothers. Strong contender: Philosophy Of The World, by the Shaggs.

The latter is a true gem: most pretentious, elitist, nerdy title ever, for the most inept, unmusical, laughable record ever.

Thanks, I knew somebody here would know.

On a somewhat random note, I once decided that if I were to ever form a band, "Psychedelic Penis" would either be the group name, or the name of our debut album. Don't ask me why.

The name of their album could be called "Trippin' Balls".
