Music Quiz: Album Covers by Description
Winter is coming in the northern hemisphere, and 2loud2oldmusic celebrated by scoring the only 20/20 in last week’s quiz, nailing the Ne-Yo songs everyone else missed.
This week you need to identify the album cover by its written description.

I scored 15/15 with 3:32 remaining – I like how it included an illustrious and recently departed guitarist.
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.
That sucked after coming off a win…11/15. I ran out of time thinking of the freaking album names. Artist names were easy.

Still a good score, but winter averted.

100% with 58 seconds to go. That said, I had to pause it and look up all but 2 of them. Sad, but educational!

Trying to work out how you’d research them – just checking spelling?

I got 12/15 within a minute, knew one of the artists but couldn’t recall any of the other three album titles, so that was my final score. Nicely done with your perfect score.

Thank you! I’m better at words than images (although I guess you need to know the images).

13/15 with two and a half minutes left. Should’a gotten one of those. Talk about a Head case.

13/15 – I forgot the Public Enemy album name and I had no idea about the album from the recently departed guitarist.

The Public Enemy one was very annoying to type – it’s so long….

Another poor score – 8/15. I wouldn’t have done much better with the images either, except Talking Heads and Black Sabbath I would have got with pictorial help.
For the record I got Abbey Road, Atom Heart Mother, Who’s Next, Nevermind, Led Zeppelin, Velvet Underground & Nico, London Calling and American Idiot. I just don’t know heavy metal or rap.

13 – knew the group of the cow album, but not the name. And I guess I never paid attention to what was on the cover of the Ozzy & co. one.
I appreciated the man with the clock around his neck clue!

It’s very confusing how they have an album named Animals, but the one with a cow on it is called something else.

That was fun and challenging! – I’m better with pictures I think. A measly 7 I’m embarrassed to say – several I knew artist but couldn’t pull the album title out.

It was a cool idea – hopefully they make a sequel.
