Weekly Music Quiz – Name the Album by its First Three Songs
Congratulations to Rich and Geoff who both scored perfect 40/40s in last week’s stressful, fast quiz.
This week’s is a little more relaxing; name the album from its first three songs. There’s a nice eclectic mix of genres and eras within the popular music spectrum.

I scored 20 in 1 minute and 43 seconds – can you beat my time?
Aphoristical
Graham Fyfe is fascinated by pop music, and he may be the only blogger in the world to cover Neil Diamond and Ariana Grande.
Not so relaxing here. 14/20. Some of those albums I never heard of or even the first three songs.

I’ve only reviewed 2/20 albums on my blog so far, and there are some I wouldn’t touch with a bargepole, but I knew enough to get the last few down to educated guesses.

18 in 1 minute 22. The educated guesses were not so educated…

Sometimes it takes a bit of luck at the end. I think the two I had left were Motley Crue and Barenaked Ladies, so it was pretty obvious which titles belonged to the pop group and which belonged to the glam-metal group.

Is it possible to get 76%, 15/20 would be 75% – I see 76% is the average score on the quiz.

18/20 in 1:57. And the ones I got wrong I knew were wrong the instant I clicked on them. Gah.

I stumbled a bit this week and had to skip a few at first. Ended up with 19/20. Another fun quiz.

As Meatloaf (kind of) said, only getting one wrong ain’t bad.

20 – it didn’t hurt that 2 of my favourite albums ever (white & blue albums) were in the quiz!

I know of it – but don’t have it yet. It would be nice to acquire a full colour set of the ____ albums!

If you want obscure (both colour and artist), there’s also Martin Newell’s ‘The Off White Album’.
