The Top Nine Interesting Album Titles of All Time

Every album or CD needs a title. There’s “The White” album or “Meet the Beatles” by the Beatles, which seems fairly sensible right? What about the odd or ‘interesting’ album titles? Here’s our top nine…

1.) “The Smoker You Drink, the Player You Get” by Joe Walsh
2.) “Four Cords and Several Years Ago” from Huey Lewis and the News
3.) “Title of Record” by Filter
4.) “You Can Tune a Piano, But You Can’t Tuna Fish” from REO Speedwagon
5.) “The Boy Bands Have Won” from Chumbawamba”
6.) “Brain Salad Surgery” from Emerson Lake and Palmer
7.) “Touch Me” from Gary Glitter
8.) “Standing on the Shoulders of Giants” from Oasis
9.) “Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy” from Sir Elton John

Prologue: Joe Walsh was battling alcoholism for years, which may explain the “Smoker…” LP, while we love the REO play on words here. Filter couldn’t come up with an album title, so they did the next best thing. Elton John was wandering through his experimental phase, but the worst irony is from Gary Glitter’s “Touch Me” album title, given he is currently in prison for inappropriate actions of the naughty kind.
