Monsterously good idea for a thread

[Bilbo]

Watching University Challange last night, a question came up that I thought was a great idea for a thread that will run and run. The idea is to guess the album from the track listing - the only rule is that you must leave out any title tracks otherwise it's too easy (also, no googling as it takes the fun out of it). The answer sought is the band/musician and the name of the album. I'll kick it off with this...

[color=#252525][font=sans-serif][size=4]1. Title Track.... [/size][/font][/color]
[color=#252525][font=sans-serif][size=4]2. [/size][/font][/color][color=#252525][font=sans-serif][size=4]For Wee Folks[/size][/font][/color]

Noddy Holder's notebooks, recently acquired for the nation by the National Music Archive, reveal an early draft of the lyrics of one of their hits:

[i]Are you blowin' out some bebop in 9/4?
Are your flat five substitutions sounding raw?
Does your tenor player tell you that Coltrane was the best,
And that without his hat and shades he feels undressed?

So here it is, Jazzy Christmas everybody's feeling cool,
Learn to read music now, or you will feel a fool.[/i]

I'm sure it will but I'm equally sure it will get sillier and sillier too ;-)

[Roland Rock]

[Earbrass]

EDIT: D'oh! Roland Rock beat me to it with a more specific guess

I was guessing Finnish.

[Joeyfivebags]

[size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Looks like Icelandic to me. so [color=#232321]Svartidaudi? or [/color][color=#232321]Sólstafir? or [/color][color=#232321]Angist? or Skalmold? Album wise wouldn't have a clue only album i know is Svartir Sandar and it's not that.[/color][/font][/size]

[toneknob]

Not Sigur Ros nor Ikea. The correct artist is in Joey's list but without the album name the entry is disqualified.
