We’re up to greatest hits quiz 40. According to my maths, we had a five-way tie for first at 14/20 last week – congratulations to all the winners.
It’s another tricky one this week. The 1960s male bands (as well as The La’s, who look like a 1960s male band) are hard to tell apart.

I scored 10 – right on the Sporcle average. I had trouble with the time and had to rush at the end.
I’m not entirely sure why Television need a greatest hits. They only have three studio albums, and surely Marquee Moon is stronger than a greatest hits anyway…
Here’s Mr MJ Lenderman with ‘She’s Leaving You’. I get Neil Young vibes with the nonchalant, awkward stage presence.

Score
11/20 and I struggled to get that. I never saw that SF greatest hits before.
Enjoy your break. I found the bunch of 1960s bands hard to differentiate.
That was tough. 14/20 for me.
You did very well.
Based on the name of this quiz, I assumed it was Extra Large (XL), but nope…just another challenging collection of compilations. I got the first 10 easily and then stumbled to 14/20.
They could have had 25 questions! A missed opportunity. I only found a couple of easy ones like Captain and Tennille.
Yikes 9/10 – tough one
Yeah, it was tough – you meant 9/20, right?
Right ..whoops
9/10
Good job – it was tricky. Out of 20, right?
14/20 again for me this week
Great score – it’s the highest equal so far.
A toughie… 13/20 for me.
Good score!
10/20..tough but fun….
Good work!
Wow! That was a hard one. 13/20.
That’s what she said?
LOL!!
LOL. Dreadful. 16/20 with 1:19 remaining.
Just looked at others results. Not so bad after all. 🙂
Yup….
Yup, turns out it was pretty good…..
30% luck, of course. 😅
I got 8/20 with 1:55 left. But, I’m fine with that. Some interesting covers this week! That Bad Religion cover is especially intriguing.
Good work, the Bad Religion cover made me wanted to hear the record.
Thanks so much for the quiz! And that’s probably why Bad Religion chose the cover, to begin with.
