In Episode 376 of History in Five Songs with Martin Popoff, Martin explores the art of the album “con” by examining rock and metal records whose dramatic or intriguing covers may have overpromised the experience. Artists including Alice Cooper, Jethro Tull, and the Clash teased darker, heavier, or more ambitious musical experience than the albums ultimately delivered.
Alice Cooper – “I’m the Coolest”
Uriah Heep – “Out on the Street”
Jethro Tull – “Watching Me Watching You”
Michael Schenker Group – “Systems Failing”
The Clash – “Cool Under Heat”
