Big Name, No Blankets is the debut studio album by Australian band, Warumpi Band. It was released in 1985.
In 2011, Neil Murray explained the title of the album saying they were playing in Halls Creek in 1984 and their single "Jailangaru Parkanu (Out from Jail)" had played on Countdown. Locals saw it and said "You must be rich you blokes" to which lead singer, Kumunjay said, "no we only got big name, no blankets".[1]
The cover art was of the band in 1982 touring through the Tanami Desert.[1]
