October 3:

On the 3rd of October, 1977, Johnny Thunders & The Heartbreakers released L.A.M.F., their only album.

On this date in 1980, The Police released their third album, Zenyatta Mondatta.

Wikipedia: 'Despite being the only Police album not to obtain a spot on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time, it is also the only one of their albums to be rated five out of five stars by AllMusic.'

On this date in 2000, Don Caballero released their fourth studio album, American Don. It would be the final release by the band to feature Ian Williams, which means that most Don Cab fans and other interested observers consider it the final release, period.

And,

On the 3rd of October, 2004, Tom Waits sprung upon us Real Gone, his 14th album.

During the chaotic summer of 1977 The Heartbreakers, with the appositely named Speedy Keen at the controls, holed up in The Who’s Ramport Studio in south London to record their single shot at vinyl immortality. L.A.M.F. (Like A Mother Fucker) was the muffled sound of a watertight live band drowning in a sea of over- produced mud; the mix was so bad that The Heart- breakers ultimately split.

Johnny Thunders & The Heartbreakers “One Track Mind” L.A.M.F. (1977)

“When I was born

I had to think up a song

To live like I wish

I had to flop like a fish

In the confusion

I made an illusion

I spit out a track

And I don't look back

I got a one track mind

I got a one track mind

I got a one track mind

Over you!”
