    Doud we'll be here all night if we get into the sellout jazz funk stage of things. They were all punned out with some album like Purdie's "PURDIE GOOD" (yuk yuk...
    ), Melvin sparks - "sparks plug" (slaps head), and last poets "at last" (ugghh).

    He's not a sellout jazz guy, but power-popper Greg Kihn had a whole grip of LP titles that punned on his name (Kihntinued, Next Of Kihn, Citizen Kihn, and probably others).

    I think Jorge meant artists who used their name as a silly pun (like that Sam Most[/b] guy doing an album called Most[/b]ly Flute).

    nothing (and check this new adjective) waxidermic about it, but a good straight-ahead jazz record. And I like those silver Xanadu covers.

    Cal Tjader had one on Buddah called Tjader-Ade. It was basically a comp of the three records he had on Skye.

    I would never hijack somebody's thread, but let me go there for a minute just to make my point.[/b]

    Now, I don't know how many of you are into the King label (of which Bethlehem was a subsidiary), but this is proof that they had some of the most eye-catching covers! If anybody's interested, we oughta start a thread!

    Okay, back to the pun names![/b]
