Music Quiz: Greatest Hits XXXIX

It’s spring here in New Zealand, which means insanely high winds most of the time. It’s lovely when the winds stop though.

This is one of the tougher Greatest Hits quizzes, at least for me. There weren’t many artists I’m interested in this time, although I’m sure there are some gems I’m ignorant of. I managed to squeeze out a score just above the Sporcle average, but it involved a lot of guessing. I’m aware that the artist in the hero image isn’t featured in the quiz, but it was the best I could find in my website’s images.
