The first of these quizzes was well received, so it is time for another.
*
Here are 12 album covers (CD sized) sitting on top of an LP.
How many of the 13 Albums and Artists can you name?
*
To allow folk in different time zones to participate, here is the one rule:
ONLY TWO COVERS PER PERSON/COMMENT/RESPONSE
Sure, tell me how many you could identify, but only write down two answers in the COMMENTS section below. OK?
*
NOTE: If you want to enjoy the quiz for yourself, don’t look at the Comments!
REMEMBER…
Tell me your total score, but only write down two answers.

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!

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.
LikeLike
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.

You were very sneaky not putting any Cliff Richard or Brotherhood of man albums, I notice.

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.
