A few contestants scored full marks last week, in the 1972 #1 hits quiz. EclecticMusicLover scored the fastest time.
This week’s quiz is album-oriented rather than song-oriented. You need to guess the album name based on a tracklist with the title track removed.

I scored 23/24 – I knew the artist for the other but was unable to guess the album. Can you score a perfect 24?
In other news, I like how Lizzo is using a prog classic in her shows. Do you know this tune?

16/24. I recognized songs from just about every album but I didn’t always know the name of the album. And I confused the two albums with a color in them.
It’s only just occurred to me that Hendrix has ‘Purple Haze’ and Prince has ‘Purple Rain’ – is there a connection, like a sort of homage?
Purple was Prince’s favorite color.
SCORE
21/24 It was easy with the first 3/4 and then the guessing started.
I couldn’t tell what song it was.
Good effort!
Only 16/24 for me. You know I seldom do well with album quizzes… And no idea about the Lizzo song.
Yeah, we had songs last week, but I get albums is a bit tougher for most contestants.
My score of 23/24 should come with an asterisk. I knew 20 of these but with the other three I only knew the artist so I looked up those artists’ discographies. I’ve never been a RHCP fan and those song titles didn’t look familiar, so I was never going to get a perfect score. I’ll let you decide if my score is really 20/24, which I would still be pleased with. As for the Lizzo performance, I’m a lifelong progressive rock fan but that tune isn’t ringing any bells for me.
I reckon probably 20 – I think Googling for spelling is fine, but beyond that it’s probably a little sketchy. I recognised the band for the one I missed, but resisted the temptation to Google their album names.
I don’t really like RHCP either, but that album was big at the time.
The instrumental music at the start of the clip?
Clocking in with 24/24 and 4:48 remaining, really enjoyed this one and that’s not just the coffee talking
Ooh, great job. I don’t know NiN very well.
Can’t say I know more than a couple of songs, but for the presence of Hurt I wouldn’t have gotten that one
So many brain farts. I knew the album but the name escaped me on a lot of these. There were about 4-5 I would’ve never gotten. I gave up at 10/24 as time was running out.
Thanks for playing!
13/24 some of the missed couldn’t remember album title, some I had no clue
Good work!
Thanks!
I don’t recognize Lizzo the artist or the song she’s doing, but I admire the larger ladies getting up on the stage and doing their thing. They are role models across the world. Not everyone needs to — nor should — look like a supermodel.
I should probably check out her records – I like modern pop/R&B generally, and like the songs I’ve heard.
24/24 with 5:17 left to go! Was a great one, especially for album listeners out there.
Great job!
24 with 4:57 remaining – grateful that all the albums were from 2006 or so and before!
Great work!
I only got 19/24. I couldn’t remember the name of some of them. Even ones I knew like The Strokes and Chili Peppers I couldn’t remember until it was way too late
19 is still pretty good!
I didn’t know who did that song in the Lizzo thing. But I’ll tell you I can’t stand her.
Have you encountered her music before?
