Yes there is.
But only the one.
On second thought -Nope ,there are TWO. (Both British actors.)


Im now holding the Telly Savales solo lp in my hands. But this is NOT it.

For one reason - a decent solo actor/actress lp needs must adhere to the bit of goodtaste which demands NO COVER VERSIONS ALLOWED (and if at all even considered, then the cover versions must at least be hip to the times.)


And, please, please dont say "The Transformed Man"!


Speaking of lps by 70s Uk actors, what is the good lp by Noel Harrison like?
David McCallum lp?
Also, Ive seen Richard Harris' "The Prophet" lp. Worth a dollar?

For God'sake, I read somewhere that back in the day Jack Nicholson rented two houses just to store his records (psych ,one would think.)


You'd think that if anyone put out an interesting solo record, it would be Jack.

Instead what do we get?
"The Elephant's Child"

Himm - not pertinent to my thread.

Its about ....why bother?

I have been wracking my brain trying to come up with something and then it occurred to me, there is a really good reason why you never see "Top 10 Best Celebrity Albums" because there aren't enough to make a top 10 in that direction. However if you do a search for "worst celebrity albums" you get a ton of hits. I think this might be telling...:)

Was David Soul British?

Bobby Sherman! :-)

Cybill Shepard put out some stuff that was not awful.

The great majority are famously bad and/or (unintentionally) funny. Examples of a "good" album by a (assuming some sort of "film" celebrity) might include Martin Mull (decent lounge-y cum Joe Pass wannabe guitar), something by Steve Martin (a bona fide world-class expert of the claw style banjo technique)... Shirley Temple, anyone?

One of the two is instrumentally backed by some of the Byrds. I think you might be able to go as far as hyping it on Ebay as "psych".

The other is by a devilishly - and I mean devilishly - handsome fellow who had a role in one episode of The Prisoner (also in The Saint, Avengers & The Baron) and who had his own TV sleuth-adventure series (or two).
His lp is popsike and the one cover is "Nevil Thumbcatch"

(Not sure, but seem to recall maybe he played the role of the nefarious ghost Quint in "Turn of the Screw".)

Steve Martin by a long shot. The man can pick and 'Sally Goodin' and 'Shortnin Bread' are as good as any bluegrass picker on vinyl.

(they can be found on the B-side of the 'King Tut' 45 single, and tiny bits are on his first 2 LPs)

As I foresaw, no one here can answer the question. (Right "Inaptitude"?)

One of the answers is David Hemmings "Happening" lp. A few covers, but they are done surprizingly well. Like i said ,two members of The Byrds play instruments on some of the tracks.

Have a shufti:

The other is Peter Wyngarde "When Sex Rears Its Ugly Head".

No winners, boys.

And just when I was going to guess David Hasslehoff...

Hmmmm hip to the times does that mean bubblegum tv? Then
David Soul
Bobby Sherman
Shaun Cassidy
The Partridge Family and David Cassidy

Awful Bubblegum TV
John Travolta
Leif Garrett
Kristy and Jimmy McNichol
AND SCOTT BAIO!!!!!!!

The two David McCallum records are actually excellent. Or, to be more precise, both have genuine moments of bonafide excellence and have been heavily sampled as a result. Both were produced/arranged by David Axelrod and H.B. Barnum; McCallum is credited with "Conducting." I'd say about 40% of the tracks are killer. Really. :yes:

Im not sure if its what you mean but David Cassidy was my favorite. The Partridge Family. I listed to "sound magazine" a million times and I even have it on CD now.

Alot of those songs are ripe for a re-hash. Im surprised no-one has done any of them yet.

Ive seen a Robert Mitchum album...and a few others that I cant recall right off from the 50's/60's

Agreed in the bubblegum circle "Sound Magazine" was The Partridge Family's Sgt Pepper...according to teenzines.... Hope you have all the PF/DC cd's Bulletin Board just came out in Nov...and completes all the PF albums on cd.

The Blues Brothers was pretty good.

Ed Ames. He was the Indian sidekick on Davy Crocket. My mom had the album.
If you remember, a time in September...
When grass was green and Oh so mellow....

Then follow...follow..
