    I found this one in the dollar bin today, and was thinking about the title.

    Am I the only one that never figured out what this title might stand for until today ??

    Before I prove I'm stupid, does anyone have an thought on the title?

    Notes

    It's the notes on the lines of the treble clef in ascending order.

    Well, you'd certainly hope I'd know that...

    Do I win a prize?

    More Notes

    If you start on the bottom of the bass clef and work your way up through middle C and the first note of the treble clef it's:

    G - B - D - F - A - C - E

    or GIBBEDY-FACE.

    Which explains why they called the album Every Good Boy Deserves Favor...

    I'm not familiar with that album but as a guitar player, (well, when I hold my mouth right) I recall learning the lines on sheet music as E-G-B-D-F or as memory tool "Every Good Boy Does Fine". Is that it? I used to memorize my guitar strings E-B-G-D-A-E as "Elvis-Beatles-George(Thorogood)-Doors-Alice(Cooper)-Eagles". That was a little more hip than the usual "Easter-Bunnies-Get-Drunk-At-Easter".

    edit:let the record show Mazort beat me to the draw!

    Yep that's it! I read it somewhere - liner notes of the new remasters maybe?
