Yeah, let's go on while we wait  For your puzzle, T.Rox, my guess is Acoustically Driven by Uriah Heep. This next one is an album (4 words):
 And, btw, Paradoxe by Spacecraft was correct way back.

The second pic shows a Monolith and there's an album by Kansas with that title, but I don't get a connection to the first picture.  |
 monolith it is !!!!!
I was sure that the first pisture would be too hard (it's a structure called monolith)

I'm afraid that if it was Love Beach, the pics would have to be the other way round and calling ELP (even with that album) 'prog-related' may get you some smirks here, darksinger. But I think we need a clue from aapatsos, as it seems that nobody can come up with an answer. I tried coast, coastal, palms, trees, surf, Pacific, lovers, couple, even hooker without any results.

I'm with Guzzman! A clue or two is in order.
I've tried Love, Tahiti, Hawaii, Fiji, Tropical and a whole buch of others, too.

ok, clue time
first pic is 'close to the sea' and second pic has to do with a formal occasion, e.g. going out to a restaurant with your girlfriend...
this should be enough... come on
I know it's hard  |

Nope, it's another state and it's only one and the track lasts only 00:09 seconds!

Al, your's is Bulb by Egg from the Egg-album (thanx for the 9-second-hint) and the one T.Rox presented to us is Photos Of Ghosts by PFM, if I'm not completely mistaken. Next is a dead easy one word album title:

You may get a better hit rate if you build the word up with pictures and addition and subtraction of letters in the "rebus" style ... but Rendezvous would be hard no matter which way you look at it!
To me, this thread more about presenting a visually appealling puzzle (that may be dead obvious to solve after taking an hour to put together) than the need to create a truly challenging and cryptic puzzle.
Take your Monolith puzzle ... if you had posted a picutre of the monolith from 2001 A Space Odyssey I may have got it first up. The picture of some rocks and for us to guess that this is a monolith structure ... I don't think so.
This is how I may have done Monolith (took about five minutes to do)...
...and you may have solved it in moments (as you did with the Rush puzzle) but the thread would be staying active and moving along, not stalling for long periods of time!
Enough said! Let's have some rebus fun

It's been bugging me the second picture is in your puzzle, Guzzman ... but I just twigged that it may be a violin bow!
...so the answer could be RAINBOW by Bobby Callender
A three-word album title...
