obviously asshole.

If it helps, I actually DID know the right answer ( it was the 1st album of theirs I ever bought ) , but I'm brain-tired & wrote what I wrote because of what the artwork is ( if that makes any sense, lol ) .

Sent my answers in -- I just wanted to say this was a fucking awesome quiz. I love the idea behind it, I love the implementation, and I even like some of the albums.

Weekday bump.

Eggs-actly.

No update yet? I'm dying to see what I scored!

I want a score, too; I wanna score!

19. Nick Drake – Five Leaves Left
20. The Who – Who's Next

I accepted U2 – Boy as a correct answer from 4 or 5 people because I forgot that the UK cover looked like this:


I got three guesses of Pink Floyd - Ummagumma for Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left. Not a bad guess considering Ummagumma comes in a green slipcase nowadays that looks like this:


Here's the number of correct answers per cover:
16 - The Who - Who's Next
13 - U2 - War
12 - David Bowie - Heroes
12 - R.E.M. - Document
11 - Matthew Sweet - Girlfriend
8 - The Beatles - Revolver
8 - Tom Waits - Swordfishtrombones
7 - The Beatles - Abbey Road
6 - Bob Dylan - The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan
6 - Fleetwood Mac - Rumours
5 - Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left
4 - Brian Eno - Before and After Science
4 - Guided By Voices - Mag Earwhig!
4 - The Pretenders - The Pretenders
3 - Peter Gabriel - Peter Gabriel 1
3 - Pink Floyd - Animals
2 - The Cure - Faith
1 - They Might Be Giants - Lincoln
0 - Jane's Addiction - Ritual De Lo Habitual
0 - XTC - Oranges and Lemons

So, to everyone who voted:

The hair around the ears and the bangs should be enough of a give-away to disqualify the European cover to "Boy"--just sayin'.

Yeah, but I'm a total puss and just want people to like me.

You get one more point.

Great quiz, even though I was too much of a wimp to enter.

Woohooo, bonus points. The 12" gatefold Ummagumma cover is even closer than the slipcase.

Thanks again for doing this.

People actually got Faith?!?!? That's pretty impressive right there.Nice ending.
