Favorite album named after a street?

[taterguy]

I like Mermaid Avenue.

Or maybe that's just the one I'm thinking of right now.

Great stuff.

1. Exile on Main Street

comes to mind....

[Sebastian Doyle]

9. Oh hell yeah!

Coincidentally, it's about to be re-released with 10 "new" bonus tracks.

Well, some of them aren't really new at all.... just different versions.

And the others have some new vocals added to some old stuff from the vaults

More or less the same approach they used on Tattoo You back in 1981. Can't believe they passed over this material then.

2. Great album!

I only can think of 'Abbot Street' by Oasis. ;)

[Ron Green]

3. Abbey Road is pretty good.

4. Named after a studio, not a street

[Ron Green]

5. Yeah, but the studio was named after the street.

So I'm counting it.

22. The studio was named after the record...

...which was named after the street.

6. I always sorta liked 461 Ocean Boulevard (Clapton)

Also Car Wheels on a Gravel Road by Lucinda Williams, though I realize that's sort of pushing the boundaries of this thread.
