Can you type all the first names? I scored a respectable, but possibly underwhelming, 53/68. Can you beat my score?
Congratulations to EclecticMusicLover, who top-scored with 48/50 in a tough quiz last week.
Here’s one Randy who didn’t make the list – Randy California playing his solo song ‘Downer’ with Spirit. Sorry for the lack of shirts on the recent videos…

I guess my 57/68 is also a respectable showing, but unlikely to be near the top of the leaderboard this week. I really like this format. It’s fun.
You’re currently coming second, so good work.
56/68 ran out of time
Great score though – you beat me.
?!?! that has to be a first 🙂
Hey, I am watching “Alone Australia” and the 10 contestants have been dropped in the southern part of the South Island of New Zealand. Amazing landscapes!!!!!!!!
Cool – enjoy! I live in the north but I’m heading south next month.
Make sure you bring strong bug spray. The small flies tormented them all the whole time they were there.
p.s. I’ve bookmarked the concert to watch for later. There can never be too many shirtless rock gods! 🙂
Wonder if there’s a listicle there? Ten rock legends who look good without a shirt. I think Iggy Pop wins?
Iggy, with his misshapen self, still looks pretty sexy without a shirt. I’d add Robert Plant, Slash, Chris Cornell and probably Jeff Ament. Who else would you add (guys only, of course)?
I remember Sting appearing topless as a special treat for him female fans … and Peter Andre’s abs were often discussed.
Oh yes, Sting! Forgot him. Now feeling guilty lol. Never heard of Peter Andre but just looked him up. Uh huh, I see what you mean.
p.s. oh yes, Ian Anderson 🙂
henry rollins (can you tell I’m looking at pics now)
This one was harder. 54/68.
Good score though – great work!
40/68…man, kinda tuff when the clock starts ticking down haha…lots of fun and I’m nowhere near the leader board but I’m good with it. lol
It was the final countdown.
hahaha..for sure!
62/68 – some I’ve never heard of and couldn’t get their names despite numerous guesses.
Still a great score. You need an encylopedic knowledge of music spanning like eight decades to get them all.
Sometimes I think I almost do but am frequently proved wrong.
You do very well – but those quizzes are super tough to get 100%.
45/68. Most artists I couldn’t figure out I don’t know. An exception was Randy Newman, which I’m shocked I didn’t get.
Good score! I did give you a R Newman clue by putting his album in the cover picture.
55/68. One of the harder ones!
Good score though!
Score
54/68 Funny…I was too busy thinking of names that began with R…that I missed the drummer to the most famous band in history lol.
I can’t believe you missed Ron Bonham!
Sammy Hagar can’t drive 55 – and I can’t top that score either, 55/68!
That’s a great reference!
Not my finest hour:
47/68
Timer
00:29
Good work though – requires a lot of cross-decade knowledge (or good name guessing) to score high.
