Loudon Wainwright III (also known as Album I) is the debut album of Loudon Wainwright III.
 It was released on vinyl in 1970 on Atlantic Records.
 Like his second effort "Album II", the album is a solo acoustic effort.

Songs in the Dark is the debut album by the Wainwright Sisters, a singer-songwriter duo featuring the Canadian-American Martha Wainwright and her American half-sister Lucy Wainwright Roche.

Album III, as its title indicates, is the third full album from Loudon Wainwright III.
 It was originally released in 1972 on Columbia Records.

 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'"?
