Music Quiz: Hide Your X,Y, and Z albums

14 Comments

1. A paltry 7/15 for me this week, as I knew only two albums, by The Police and Al Stewart. I remember that Lou Christie song. A weird video of him lip-syncing the song in a wrecking yard, and wow, he had a hairy chest!

   • I think this one was pretty hard, not many x,y,z albums.

2. A couple of lucky guesses netted my 13/15 with 4:53 on the clock. Several of those are very familiar!

   • Great work – I assume Yes, Flaming Lips, and YMO are among your favourites from that selection.

     • Spot on, mate!

3. 8/15 this week. Some of those were hard!

   • But you scored more than 50%, so good work. I’m surprised Aretha Franklin is among the least guessed – I thought ‘Rock Steady’ was an acknowledged classic.

4. Slinging in my lot at 14/15. I own / adore more than half of these so was off to a caffeine-fuelled flyer once I saw the spread of covers.

   • Great work – I thought it was an obscure bunch this week.

5. 7/15…some real guessing going done. Thanks for setting this up…

   • And thanks for playing!

6. Score
   9/15…guessing upon guessing… I knew that song but didn’t know it was Lou Christie.

   • Good work. I only knew one Christie song, so it was nice to hear another one.

     • He also shared the same awful manager with Badfinger…he got taken but not as much.
