Hi guys, welcome to the third quiz of the current season, which is a good old-fashioned album covers quiz. Simply name the artist and title of the following 40 albums. The scoring system is 1 point for correct artist, 1 point for correct title. There is also a connection between 39 of the 40 albums so there are bonus points up for grabs if you can give me the connection and also identify the one album which doesn't fit the connection. When PM'ing me your answers, number the albums from left to right and then top to bottom, so the first row is 1-5, the second row is 6-10 and so on.

I've deliberately tried not to make it too difficult this time and I think the connection is also very gettable with a little thought. So I've added some extra questions for more bonus points!

So PM me the artist and title of each album, along with answers to the following questions.

1. What's the connection between 39 of the 40 albums? (5 points)
2. Which one album doesn't fit the connection? (3 points)
3. How many albums will be correctly guessed by everyone? (3 points)
4. Which album will be the least correctly guessed? (3 points)
5. Which album will be the most correctly guessed? (3 points)
(For questions 2, 4 & 5, you can either answer by album title or album number, so it's worth having a random guess).

Here are your albums:



I'll accept entries until 23:59 on Sun 28th Feb and will announce the results on the Monday evening. Good luck!

I always think I've nailed the theme about 75% of the way through then find another albums that completely throws my theory off!

So far I’ve only worked out 20 of them, so I’m halfway there but I don’t think I have much hope of finding many more.

EDIT: Make that 21! biggrin.gif

You're one of the very few who correctly guessed every album in my last Album Covers quiz, so I'm expecting big things from you this time too, no pressure!

I'm definitely missing a handful that I don't think I am going to get!

Making great progress with this now, but there are still the following that I have no idea about;

#4, #12, #26, #31, #32 and #40.

Really struggling to find anything that resembles those covers!

It keeps reminding me of a Stereophonics album, which it’s not. All I can make out from that image is a black and white album cover, possibly with pink font above and the image looks like a reflection in a mirror! I’m still none the wiser! laugh.gif

Fairly confident on 36/40 of these. Guessed the other 4 which I know are wrong and doesn't help me make the connection!

I have a few more to get, I think I recognise them but can't quite place them. In particular #2 and #40 are bugging me. And I've had to guess #13

#2 definitely bugged me for ages but I still haven’t got a clue about #40. blink.gif

This is also me. I was certain it was one of two things but there are two albums there that go against the theory :/
