Music Quiz: Hide Your N Albums

22 Comments

1. After 15 easy ones and a few good guesses, I had one stumble and ended up with 22/24. Not bad, but probably not good enough to win two weeks in a row. Good job putting this quiz together.

   • It might not hold off Tony. A few tough ones in there though.

2. Great job putting this one together. Nice to see Maiden on here! My score 14/24. Thanks as always

   • Once I went to a prayer meeting where the bishop talked about how he loved that Maiden album.

     • Wow!

3. 19/24 – Was not familiar with a number of album covers or the songs.

   • I tried to find 20 albums that weren’t too obscure, but there are probably some records that aren’t as big as they were when I was growing up (like Pearl Jam’s No Code and The Byrds). While the more recent choices like Sky Ferreira and The 1975 are near the bottom of the results, which I guess reflects the fragmentation of the 21st century music landscape.

4. 12/24 Ditto to what Jeff said.

   • Sorry! You got a pass though.

     • 🙂

5. 14/24. still not good at these

   • N is a tough letter.

     • You’re far too kind.

6. 15/24… I couldn’t find Kate Bush. Wasn’t familiar with that album cover!

   • I think it was pretty controversial at the time – things coming out from under her skirt. But it’s probably only her 4th or 5th most-famous album – Hounds of Love, Kick Inside, The Sensual World are all probably more famous. It does have Babooshka. I have made the pictures a bit bigger starting with O too.

7. 22/24 this week… further still from that cigar

   • You, Rich, and Max all got 22 – might be a three-way tie this week.

     • A third of a cigar is better than no cigar

8. Score
   22/24 which surprised me because I guessed a lot.

   • Good job!

9. Score: 20/24: Timer 05:30

   • Good job, thanks for playing.
