Congratulations to Geoff (https://1001albumsin10years.wordpress.com/) who scored 100% in last week’s intensive quiz. And a shout out to Rich, who was 1 point off the perfect score.
This week’s quiz requires you to identify notable musicians from their minimalist portraits.

13/15. Amazing how much you can pick up from minimalist pictures. I had a really tough time with the women, guessed right a couple of times. I missed one of the sunglass guys I should have got. And the one that looked like a cookie mystified me till it was revealed who it was.

I went back and looked and still can’t figure out who looks like a cookie…

That one took me a while. It’s amazing how they made him distinctive based on the shape of his hair.

Yikes, a paltry 9/15 for me this week. Even after seeing the answers I’m still not sure about a couple of them, especially a particular blind piano-playing genius. I’ll blame the artist and not myself. Haha.

Yeah, I didn’t get that one either – seemed like a pretty tough image to guess. I’m more familiar with seeing him in his old age too.

14/15 – a certain piano player stumped me. Could’ve sworn it was meant to be Scott Weiland
