Just like the previous two weeks, you’re invited to join regular readers in identifying which artist a greatest hits collection belongs to. Even if you don’t know the compilation in question, you can figure some out based on iconography and facial recognition.

I scored 20/20 – I was much more interested in this set of artists than the previous one. I had 3:11 remaining – can you beat my time?
My daughters have been very into this tune this week – perhaps because they’ve been watching old episodes of The Simpsons.

That Leslie Gore song is great ain’t it? I have her greatest hits and its got about half a dozen fantastic ones. This is the best though. Except for Maybe I Know which is at least as good.
I had never heard it before this week – it is good though.
18/20, 59 seconds left.
Great work!
Only 17/20 this week. Not much to say about that performance. Now I have to wait a whole week to redeem myself.
You can probably figure out what next week’s quiz will be… but you’ll have to wait a week to tell us your score.
16/20 for me. I fondly remember “Sunshine, Lollipops & Rainbows”, and loved it as a 10 year old when it came out.
I didn’t realise you were quite that old! So born around 1953?
I’m very old, born in 1954.
16/20 1:35 remaining. I thought for sure the Wings one had to be Bjork.
I used to own that Wings album. Even on a compilation. Controversially, it left off ‘Listen to What the Man Said’.
Imagining poor Leslie traveling the country having to sing that song over and over again.
It might be hard to sing such an effervescent song if you’re not in a positive mood….
SCORE
20/20
TIMER
01:45 There were 3 I had no clue about but found a clue on the album.
The oldies channel way back would play that song.
Great work – is that 1:45 remaining? I’d never heard that song before.
Yes remaining…I always copy what is on the screen.
I listened to an oldies channel…when I say oldies…I mean mid-sixties and before at a place I worked in the 80s while I was a teen so I got to learn a lot of bad music but also a lot of cool music in the 50s.
Looks like you might be the only 20 anyway, unless there’s a last minute entry.
Wow…this one was easier for me for some reason.
19/20 for me. Not bad, but not a winner thanks to Max.
Good score though.
18/20. The only ones I got wrong were the ones I had to guess at, which were two 90s groups that I don’t really like anyways.
So unlucky, but good score.
18/20
You’ve been in great form recently.
I guess the quizzes have suited me. I’m quite good on album covers.
