I thought I would be the only doper to have ever heard of _Half Man Half Biscuit_ ---

> [@](#): > > Kiss my Axe by Al DiMeola I remeber when that album came out. DiMeola had just written a long editorial in Billboard decrying the use of sex in videos to sell music. Then he puts out that album and the cover is him, a guitar, and a naked girl. Pot? Kettle’s callin’… My favorite clever album title was _Older Budweiser_ by Gang Green. (obviously a band excessively fond of puns) ---

**Fuel** had an album which was called _Title of Record._ There was also a band (probably several actually) who released an album called _Self-Titled Album_ Kind of clever, in an unoriginal sort of way.
