The Rutles got all the press, but surely there are other legendary groups/albums that will last a lunchtime.
After all, no one will remember “Dodecaphenia”, the 6-LP set by The Whom.

Draftees by Washington’s Biplane comes to mind, and
Coal Fired Boystown by Johnny Hendricks was one of my uncle’s friend’s brother’s neighbor’s favorites.
