The entry window has closed, and I will be revealing the answers shortly.

Thank you to the 27 participants who took the time to send me answers to this chart quiz, but was anyone able to correctly guess all album covers...

Stay tuned for the answers! biggrin.gif

As a reminder, points were allocated as follows;

10 points for correct artist and album.
or
5 points for correct artist (without album name)
or
5 points for correct album (without artist name)

and there were lots of ways to earn extra points including;

25 bonus points for correctly guessing the number of ‘Greatest Hits’ albums (this includes any album with a collection of the artist’s hits or singles from other albums by that artist, not just albums with “Greatest Hits” in their title)
and
25 bonus points for correctly guessing the number of albums which peaked at #1 in the UK Albums Chart
and
10 bonus points for correctly guessing the two albums which did not chart in the UK Albums Chart
