Cool quiz, WD I know a few, but since I'm only allowed a pair...
#1 is definitely Mike & The Mechanics(before anyone guesses Genesis, y'know?)
#19 is a bad picture of Sheena Easton(maybe Prince took it, too bad you didn't have any from her Miami Vice days!)
Your Pal,

I actually tried to find one from Miami Vice, but all I got was blurry screen caps which would be hard to identify her.
Both answers are correct Doc :)

I know Cat said Psychedelic Furs for #11 but I'll be
damned if it doesn't look like Terry and Dale Bozzio
so I think it is Missing Persons.
