Therapy (Loudon Wainwright III Album)
''Therapy'' is a 1989 album by Loudon Wainwright III. It followed a three-year hiatus, during which Wainwright moved from England (where he had recorded his previous two albums) back to the USA. Compared with those two, ''Therapy'' was not well received, but outstanding tracks have subsequently appeared on live albums (e.g. "Thanksgiving" on ''Career Moves''). Track listing All tracks composed by Loudon Wainwright III #"Therapy" – 4:24 #"Bill of Goods" – 3:20 #"T.S.D.H.A.V." – 2:09 #"Harry's Wall" – 5:22 #"Aphrodisiac" – 3:47 #"Fly Paper" – 3:42 #"Nice Guys" – 3:03 #"Thanksgiving" – 5:39 #"Your Father's Car" – 2:23 #"Me & All The Other Mothers" – 3:04 #"You Don't Want to Know" – 3:46 #"Mind Read (It Belonged to You)" – 2:47 #"This Year" – 3:04 ''This Song Don't Have A Video'' The only single from ''Therapy'', "T.S.D.H.A.V.", actually ''did'' have one, featuring Wainwright singing the song in an easy chair; he gets up from the chair for a mom ...

More Love Songs
''More Love Songs'' is a 1986 album by Loudon Wainwright III released on Rounder Records. Wainwright had moved to England, and this was the second album produced by (and featuring) Richard Thompson. Critically and popularly it is probably considered the peak of his 1980s renaissance. After three albums in four years, it would be another three years before he released the largely ignored ''Therapy''. The album was nominated for the "Best Contemporary Folk Recording" Grammy. The style of the album combines purely acoustic staples like "Your Mother and I" with piano-driven ballads like "The Back Nine" and full-blown rockers like "Vampire Blues" and "Hard Day on the Planet". Wainwright also careens emotionally from the sad "Overseas Call" to the laugh-out-loud "Synchronicity". Wainwright also enjoyed a period of popularity as a regular on The Jasper Carrott Show in the UK, and many of the songs from his following album were written during his time living in the UK as well as some ( ...

I'm Alright (Loudon Wainwright III Album)
''I'm Alright'' is a 1985 album by Loudon Wainwright III. It was his third release on Rounder Records, recorded in London. It was produced by Richard Thompson, who also played electric lead guitar on several songs. The back cover features a photo of the two together, captioned 'Loud and Rich'. The poignant "Screaming Issue", one of Wainwright's few collaborations – this time with Terre Roche of The Roches – was never compiled, nor has it appeared on a live album. It concerned his then infant daughter Lucy Wainwright Roche, who has since played and recorded with him. This album continued Wainwright's reinvention of himself as an acoustic-based artist, and was the first of his Richard Thompson produced collaborations, which would peak critically the following year with '' More Love Songs''. Richard Thompson continued to tour with Wainwright, and Danny Thompson of Pentangle into the late 1990s. His most recent appearance on a LW3 album was 2003's '' So Damn Happy''. Th ...
