Rock album/artist quiz

The Infidel · 12-27-06, 08:32 PM

I say this today and thought it was pretty cool. Don't know if it's been posted before, but see what you can do with it. There's 54 total, and you have to get both the artist and album title correct to get a point. I got 28 with minimal help from the internet...as in recognizing the album cover and knowing what artist it is, but not necessarily being able to remember the title of the album.

JasonF · 12-27-06, 09:12 PM

26 points. I feel like there are another 5 or 6 I should know.

The Infidel · 12-27-06, 09:15 PM

Exactly. Like the one with the razor blade. I've seen that one many times in the past, but I just can't place who it is.

Stalled out at 36, referring only to my own records and memories of flipping through racks of butt-rock at Peaches; got all but 4-5, 7, 9, 12, 15, 17-19, 22-23, 25, 30, 33, 38, 43, 46 and 54. WTF was Hawkwind doing in that bunch?

I don't know why I didn't figure that one out, pretty sure I had a copy at one time, same with Paranoid. I must be letting the cropping throw me off. So now you guys' help I'm up to 41.

nodeerforamonth · 12-28-06, 12:16 AM

21. I know I should've had at least 3-5 more though.

Josh-da-man · 12-28-06, 12:48 AM

I got thirty from memory -- 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 17, 21, 24, 27, 29, 30, 31, 32, 36, 37, 39, 40, 42, 45, 46, 47, 48, 51, 52, 53.

edstein · 12-28-06, 01:26 AM

I got 13. I know the band on many of those but, I can't remember the album title.

rw2516 · 12-28-06, 06:37 AM

I got 30. Some wouldn't give correct no matter how I typed in right answer

Rocketdog2000 · 12-28-06, 07:27 AM

Just from looking at it, I can get just about all of them but - 7, 9, 15, 18, 23, 28 & 35. Either because there's not enough of the cover showing, or I can't quite remember the correct album title.

Andalusia · 12-28-06, 08:50 AM

I'm stalled out at 40. Some of these I know I've seen, like the dude with the Les Paul, the green chair, and the helmet and spear man.

Shit... I actually got more of those right than I thought. The site refused to acknowledge some of them, row 1 #6.

Seems like it's kind of screwy in accepting correct answers. I had to click around a lot to get it score me properly.
