Most of A&M's early albums had recognizable album names. There are a few, though, which are awkward. To wit:
Chris Montez: The More I See You / Call Me. Was it really the album title? Or did the titles on the album cover stick out prominently enough that everyone started calling it by that name? IIRC, the LP's label said simply The More I See You.
Lucille Starr & Bob Regan: The Canadian Sweethearts. Was this, in fact, the name they recorded under, or the title of their album...or both? (Or was this name adopted as their duo name after this album, since the title could have been permanently linked to them?)
The Merry-Go-Round: You're A Very Lovely Woman - Live. This one's a real puzzler. This is actually another album where two of the album's prominent tracks are featured in large print on the cover (which again implies this could be the album title)...and what's more, there is a song on the album called "Live", but it's commonly mistaken as a "live" album!
Final thought: can you think of any A&M albums where the group name and album title are so obscure that you have no idea which one is the album title, and which is the artist or band name? (Many years ago, I had that issue with the Tamba 4 We And The Sea album: "We And The Sea" certainly could be used as a group name!)
