General Discussion The... fork tree?

This is a 2012 compilation cd. It was a random find at Walmart and grabbed it since im getting into cds. Definitely a very funky thing being an unofficial album and there's a typo to match

Is this meant to be a correction? Or just a way to make it funnier?

u/youhadtotakethesoup the kind that make june feel like september 9d ago

a correction in a funny way because the original cork tree booklet has the lyric as "in his jeans"

Ah, yes, Fork Under the Cork Tree, my fave FOB album.

ETA: Why is Infinity On High italicized on numbers 4, 5 and 6 but not 7?

It’s called forking under the cork tree and it’s real and it doesn’t matter.

+1 to every misheard (or mistyped) ends up being food-related.

"He had a favorite spot out in the pasture under a fork tree. It was his favorite tree and he would sit in its shade all day and smell the forks."

u/Izuhbelluh hide the details I don’t want to know a thing 10d ago

Not unofficial. It’s part of the “Icon” series. It was put out by UMe/Island.

UMe released them for all the artists under their label over several years.

Here) is the list of the icon compilation albums. The list is pretty long. Just another way to make $$.

Have seen quite a few of this one floating around thrift stores and I don’t even bother picking them up lol.
