There seems to be a plethora of music related polls running at the moment. I'll throw out a suggestion with a little twist.

One Album Wonders:

Rules-
1 – Only groups that made one studio album.

2 – One of a kind solo album (side project) by a single group member or a combination of members of various groups.

3 – No live albums.

4 – No posthumous, remix or compilation releases.

I'll start with two of my favorites;

Toy Matinee – Toy Matinee

David & David – Welcome To The Boomtown

Holy crap on a cracker. I hit submit and my screen flickered, froze up and a duplicate message appeared. Duplicate indeed.
I have been super-bugged.

Edit:
Not sure what is going on. When I hit my "Back" button the page refreshes instead of going back to the previous page.

Winston Smith26 Mar 2018 10:56 a.m. PST

Toy Matinee has 7 votes already. The fix is in!

USAFpilot26 Mar 2018 11:07 a.m. PST

I was going to nominate "This is Spinal Tap", but I just discovered that they actually made a second album. Who would have thought.

zoneofcontrol26 Mar 2018 11:12 a.m. PST

Winston-
Toy Matinee actually has 49 votes if you count the 7 different threads that each have 7 votes. Let me know if you are starting any new polls. I'll be happy to stop by to vote early and often.

MajorB26 Mar 2018 11:16 a.m. PST

There's a very strong echo in here

Hlaven26 Mar 2018 11:18 a.m. PST

Blind Faith. Clapton

Derek and the Dominoes. Clapton

It's a Beautiful Day with White Bird on it.

KSmyth26 Mar 2018 11:27 a.m. PST

Derek and the Dominoes and It's a Beautiful Day have multiple albums.

Sorry Derek and Dominoes have a live album as well as Layla. It's a great listen.

Albums? Seriously dating yourself with a pre millennium term there, aren't you? What's next, a pole on vaudeville?

Giles the Zog26 Mar 2018 1:25 p.m. PST

Sex Pistols, 'Never Mind the Bleeped text, Here's the Sex Pistols'

Sorry, too many compilations and re-hashes !

Sir Walter,

If you don't like it, you don't have to respond. Or post your own damn poll. Note the spelling.

"The Traveling Wilburys never had a second album"

Um, link

Well, not one anybody remembers. Roy was dead.

Sorry, I'm a record collector.

The Sinceros – The Sound of Sunbathing

Winston Smith26 Mar 2018 10:53 p.m. PST

That's the in-joke. The Wilburys had a Vol 1 and a Vol 3. But never a Vol 2. So they never had a second album.

cavcrazy27 Mar 2018 1:35 p.m. PST

The La's, self titled album.

Manitoba's Wild Kingdom album …And You?(featuring Ross the Boss from ManoWar and Handsome Dick Manitoba)

Manitoba's Wild Kingdom were a heavy metal and punk rock band based in New York City. They are perhaps most notable for consisting, in part, of members of the New York punk band The Dictators and for being one of the very few musical groups Sandy Pearlman ever signed to his short-lived record label, Popular Metaphysics. They were formed in 1986, and most recently performed in 2008.
