Music Quiz: Musicians by First Names Picture Quiz
Last week’s Bowie quiz threw up a couple of different winners than usual – congratulations to Tangerine Trees (https://allyouneedisthebeatles.wordpress.com/) and Chris (https://moviesandsongs365.wordpress.com/) who both scored 100%.
This week’s quiz requires you to match artists from their first name to their mugshot.
You can find it at https://www.sporcle.com/games/Noldeh/you-can-call-me-lady-gaga/
I scored 23/24. Can you beat me and score 100%? Let me know!

Graham Fyfe is fascinated by pop music, and he may be the only blogger in the world to cover Neil Diamond and Ariana Grande.

He is Ringo…period…not Richard or Ritchie… I’m a huge Beatles fan and I should be kicked though.
Love those quizes…they are challenging. I can only do the ones about older artists though.

I like quizzes like this one that encompass a range of eras. I generally find, even though I cover newer music as well, anything involving classic rock tends to get more hits/comments/likes etc.

You are right about that. When I’ve tried to slip a few unknowns…most of the time I get nothing.
I’m curious…you know a lot of music…have you ever heard of “The Nashville Ramblers”? They were from San Diego and had a brilliant power pop song called The Trains…in the 80s.

24/24. Almost blew it with Alecia but thought about it for a minute. Fortunately I (for whatever reason) know the real first names of a lot of celebs.

I know! I don’t even know half of their music but I know their names. I’m a trivia guy and I have a thing for names. I find them interesting, especially the choices people make when they change them. There’s a guy who was in Steppenwolf named Dennis Edmonton who changed his name to Mars Bonfire! But his original name was Dennis McCrohan. WTF?

I think you and Jim are the 100% so far, but he didn’t give a time.
Kamer Man, look at your score, Jim’s a lot like you.
You both scored 100% before the day was through.

Maybe you have more of a visual mind. I know my scores always plummet when it’s anything involving pictures, while my wife’s an architect and really good at visual stuff.

Well spotted. I think I’m at a disadvantage before we even start the quiz(I only got into music seriously in my 30s). But fun to play along and learn.

Full marks, 2:32 remaining. Admittedly I deferred a few answers until I went all the way through but some of it was still difficult! Cool one.
