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…
Maybe more like a halo…
14/15. Tough quiz though.
Looks like you’re in the lead thus far.
12/15. Not too shabby. Kicking myself I didn’t get #2 on the list
That one took me a while. It’s amazing how they made him distinctive based on the shape of his hair.
12/15. one woman I never would have gotten and I am ticked about the two males I missed
I thought the modern woman who’s still alive was Deborah Harry.
We can’t get them all.
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.
We’re back to being tied!
I missed the 3 middles along the top row
Pretty sure no-one here got Ray Charles! But good score.
14/15 – a certain piano player stumped me. Could’ve sworn it was meant to be Scott Weiland
Pretty sure no-one here got Ray Charles! But tied for the lead.
