Some of them stay in ones mind for years and years and it's not always because of the music connected to them. Strangely the music behind the oddly seductive TITLE of an album can sometimes be flat and uninteresting.
What is/are your favourite album TITLE or TITLES?
Try to come up with at least 3 titles

Please note. This thread refers only to the TITLE or TITLES of albums. Not to your favourite album/albums (although this can coincide).

A few favourite album titles in no particular order:
Unrest (Henry Cow) Disco 3000 (Sun Ra) Strange Celestial Road (Sun Ra) Phase IV (Art Zoyd) The Feeding Of The 5000 (Crass) Horn Of The Goat (Consumer Electronics) Fingerprince (The Residents) Not Available (The Residents) Bird Seed (Whitehouse) Livin' Fear Of James Last (Nurse With Wound)
When thinking of language I think reference plays an interesting role in titles especially. Furthermore in terms of how "interesting" a title really is or... over time becomes - it is - of course - hard to distinguish the title from the context it operates within (on many levels). But sometimes they stand out pretty well on their own.
