    Only got two of them all up, and they were the Grateful Dead’s `Blues for Allah’ and Hawkwind’s `In Search of Space’?

    Love it! I scrolled down looking away from the screen so I haven’t peeked if any answers have been posted already – I’ll send my submissions (thanks for mentioning the quantity of 2 – there are only 2 I feel confident about!) once I’ve had more chance to ponder!

    I got 11…10 off the top of my head and 1 with a little research. Looking forward to finding out about the other 2. (Actually, I just saw one of them in the comments, so I’m almost there). Should we be emailing you our answers?

            I’m very proud but I’m sure someone out there will get all 13. Thanks for letting me know (via email) about the one I missed. That was a complete stumper.

    Spotted 8. My two selections are ELO Out of the Blue and the Joni Mitchell Hissing of Summer Lawns are two I was almost certain someone would point out. I think Rich probably spotted Two of the other ones I am thinking of since I beleive he has done series on them. I could be wrong.

    Is that an Australian AC/DC in there? High Voltage? I’m getting about 8 of the artists bit only 4 that I can remember the titles of without cheating!

    Oh maybe make that 4, there’s Pentangle… And it is called Sweet Child? I think…

      Nice work. AC/DC – High Voltage was one that stumped most. And yes indeed, balancing Bon’s Yang with some Jacqui Yin is Pentangle’s Sweet Child.

        Awesome! I knew it was Pentangle but want sure if it was that or Basket of Light. Lucky guess. I think that actually makes me 8 for artists and 5 for titles then.

      Graceland (Paul Simon) is duly recorded. As ELO already had a mention, is there something else you’d like to add JDB?

      Sorry, your invite must have been delayed by heavy traffic in the time zones.
      I think the next one, I’ll suggest people name their total for ‘Unassisted’ and ‘Researched’. What do you reckon?

    Thanks to poppaculture, we can add:

    Joe Jackson – Night and Day
    Ramones – It’s Alive

    And someone (I think Rich K using ‘research’) did name the final cover earlier…

    Ten Years After – Stonedhenge

    So that’s it: 13/13.
