Holey Crap!
This is a HUGE labour of Love. I really want to name names, but I couldn’t find who’s behind this.
Here’s the story: some anonymous fellow felt that the Rutles deserved a remix album just like the Beatles had in 2006 (Love).
Oops, sorry, backing up:
-The Rutles – “All you need is Cash” was a parody film by Eric Idle and Gary Weis. Yes you guessed it: A big shot of Monty Python-juice is in this mix. The best thing about this film is that every single song sounds exactly but not quiet like the beatles. Major credits in that department got to the legendary Neil Innes, the godfather of funny music. That movie is a whole other topic, but If you haven’t seen this, I suggest you click the above link an hunt it down (I bought my copy for 5 euro’s)

—–Back to “LUNCH”—–

This guy recreated the entire “Love” album with the Rutles parody equivalent song by song. Just like the Beatles, the Rutles received a musical overhaul in 2010 (not really but that is all part of the parody). This is taking fan art to a whole new level.

Just check out the link, and listen to the whole album. Kudos to whoever did this, I only want to stick this album on my ipod, listen to it on soundcloud en make sweet love to it, cherishing the cover art.

Just in time for the holidays!

A free Spinal Tap Cover album!

and guess whose track is number one on the playlist?

What are you waiting for? go to http://coverville.com/spinaltap/ and grab your copy NOW!

Over at ThisBlogRules.com some retro album covers of Eastern European artists are posted. Needless to say, someone couldn’t resist photoshopping a little hair on a lady’s leg.  Please tell me that’s  photoshopped…

The band ‘Blame Ringo, released their first single accompanied by this video. It’s a timelapse outside the Abbey Road studio’s. For the young folks:  From the release of the Beatles’ Abbey Road album, people are constantly trying to recreate the cover.

“Blame Ringo” is one of my favourite band names now. Last year we made up  ‘Sorry Ringo’, a Cover band that only plays John Lennon reportoire.

Nothing wrong with a good Polka Album. Take this one:  6 Fat Dutchmen. From -of course – Minnesota.

Album tip for the day is…

4 Thumbs Up on this record. The fellow in the middle wanted to be cool and show the peace-sign, so we’ll just forget about him. Here we have four band members dressed sharp showing their thumbs saying: buy this record, you really can’t go wrong with this one.

Sabbath in the Suburbs – by the Lounge Brigade.

A lounge-cocktail album with only Black Sabbath songs (the cover says it all).
From a rhumba version of ‘Paranoid’ to a swing-version of ‘Sabbath bloody Sabbath’.
Gold Jerry, gold!
I am a sucker for strange albums like this, and it warms my heart to see that there are still musicians out there who produce them. In this case it is produced by Joe Ferry. Now Who is Joe Ferry you ask? It is truly sickening to see his credentials.

I miss vinyl records.
I miss turning them over after 20 minutes.
I miss the smell.
I miss the great artwork.
I miss the scratches.
I miss blowing the dust off a needle before you put it on a record.
That’s why I can’t resist digging through flee-market bins. And boy did I find some great stuff there.
Just thinking out loudly here.

The one on the left must be the organ-player. For some reason it’s always the one on the left.
Let the jokes about my weight roll in…
