About: Album III

An Entity of Type: album, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Album III is the third full-length album from Loudon Wainwright III. It was originally released in 1972 on Columbia Records. Album III would spawn Loudon Wainwright's most popular hit single, "Dead Skunk", one of the many 'novelty songs' sprinkled throughout Wainwright's career. Although Wainwright has maintained an ironic, sometimes sepulchral sense of humor, "Dead Skunk", despite its commercial success, has dogged him ever since, as he comments on 1985's album I'm Alright, "Were you embarrassed about 'Dead Skunk'"?

  • Album III is the third full-length album from Loudon Wainwright III. It was originally released in 1972 on Columbia Records. Album III would spawn Loudon Wainwright's most popular hit single, "Dead Skunk", one of the many 'novelty songs' sprinkled throughout Wainwright's career. Although Wainwright has maintained an ironic, sometimes sepulchral sense of humor, "Dead Skunk", despite its commercial success, has dogged him ever since, as he comments on 1985's album I'm Alright, "Were you embarrassed about 'Dead Skunk'"? This is the first of his albums to feature a full backing band, on many tracks, which was named White Cloud. Wainwright mostly eschewed a rocking sound for a stripped down acoustic one from the early-1980s onwards. (en)

  • Album III är ett musikalbum av Loudon Wainwright III som lanserades 1972 på skivbolaget Columbia Records. Som titeln anger var det hans tredje skiva, och det första albumet han gjorde för Columbia Records, efter att ha lämnat Atlantic Records som släppte hans två första album. Albumet har en mer rockbetonad ljudbild än många av hans andra album som är mer akustiskt baserade. Skivan inleds med Wainwrights enda egentliga hitsingel, skämtlåten "Dead Skunk" som nådde sextondeplatsen på Billboard Hot 100. (sv)
