Bands and artistes like giving their albums titles with puns, or weak jokes in. These inevitably arise from either a) long, bored periods of time in the studio, during which a catchphrase will emerge, and then when it comes to find a title which somehow binds together a motley collection of songs, they just use the catchphrase. Or, b) exactly as above, except long, bored, periods of time in a van.

You see them all the time. I was just in Sainsburys, where there's a meagre rack of chart CDs, including James Blunt's “Back To Bedlam” which I'm assuming is a hilarious pun on “Back To Bed”, rather than an account of his visit to the site of a former London mental hospital. The Keatons, the band with which I had a sorry baptism of fire, malfunctioning guitars and cheese sandwiches, had a couple of marvellous titles for cassette releases, notably “Interstellar Overdraft” and “Mid-Life Crisps”.

But I'm having trouble remembering many more. There's the Butthole Surfers “Electric Larryland”, of course. Motley Crue's “Red, White & Crüe”. A cursory web-search informs me that REO Speedwagon were brave enough to release an album called “You Can Tune A Piano, But You Can't Tuna Fish”. Miles Davis seemed to only release albums with bad puns for titles involving his Christian name. Oh, man, look, Ted Nugent had an album called “Intensities in 10 Cities”. Beat that.
