Hi Kevin! :)

You got 3.5 correct answers there. #9 is Jefferson Airplane, but with a different song.

And I'm sure there's at least one other song in this quiz that you'll recognize. ;)

You've nailed those, Gaylon! :) Both #14 and #36 were big hits in The Netherlands, but never made the Top 40 in UK - which surprised me.

btw: #17 is Canadian. ::)


17. Dancin Fool - Guess Who


I never would have gotten that one.  It did sound familiar, but I don't know my Guess Who as well as I should  :-[

You can't win 'em all, can you? ;) Maybe you'll recognize some more once the hints are out (I think that will prove to be necessary...).

I know a couple.  :)

#10 Inside - Stiltskin

I recognise #30 as well.  Off to listen again!

Two are familiar, but do escape me.

I have had another listen to the remaining tracks and I still none the wiser, so I shall pass on the quiz.

Well, most of the remaining songs didn't chart in UK, except for #30 which was a #10 hit.

You don't recognize any of the bands from the hints either..? :-\\

#30 Coldplay, and my son says the title is "Trouble".

I knew you were gonna get it sometime, Kevin! :)

At least they charted somewhere, here in the States Triumvirat is very hard to come by.
I had to order my "A La Carte" and "Russian Roulette" CDs off the internet, from Germany.
Thanks for adding it to your quiz, I enjoyed hearing it, I still don't know how I missed it.

You're welcome! :) Like I said, something for everyone. ;)

Henk, I want to take a stab at #7. When I was bartending there was a CD on the jukebox
called Throwing Copper, I thought that was the name of the band and that it was a live
recording. Turns out I was wrong.That being said, is:

#7...I Alone......Live?

Yes and yes. :) Maybe someone else knows the songs... :-\\

For #15 ...Procul Harem, as Beth gave us, I believe the song is:

A Salty Dog

Excellent clue Henk, as well as an excellent album.

#33 is another one I missed.

#33...Tightrope Ride....The Doors?

Two correct answers, Kevin! You seem to be on a roll...  :)

To be quite honest, I never realised the Doors continued for another two years after Jim's death. You learn something new every day... ::)

It's such a great song IMO... and I'm glad someone got it! :)

I agree, and I'm glad you gave the Joker hint. I've seen Steve live in concert about 4 times and he's so sos good.

Hi there, and welcome to the boards! :)

Thanks!  :)

The final five are obviously the hardest ones, though I'm a bit surprised no-one got the band names from my hints.... :-\\


A new quiz is in the making, so I wanna wrap this one up. I'm gonna reveal the answers in 24 hours , so if you want to have a final go: now's as good a time as any. :)

Is #28 a Styx song?

Is #39 REM?

Is #28 a Styx song?



Is #39 REM?


I'm glad to say both answers are correct. :)

Okay after like the 9 trillionth time of listening to it, #39 is Perfect Circle by REM.

Another half point well deserved! 8)

And some karma to you, because after listening to the clipping for 9 trillion times, you must be pretty fed up with the song! ;D ;)

LOL.....thanks.  :)


I kept listening to it over and over and over and I was reading your clue and then it hit me. 

Hey Henk, this is for #18. Based on your clue I came up with Parachute, I took the
rest of the clue and asked a guy I work with and he came up with "Something Happens"
so my guess is:

#18...Parachute....Something Happens?

It is "Parachute", and it is Something Happens. :) The guy you work with deserves some karma, but I can't give it to him unless he joins the board... ::)

Time's up, everyone. Thanks for participating! :)

Here's the final 2.5 answers:

16. Well... Isn't It Time for this group of newborns?
        Piece Of The Action - Babys

28. It's Styx, but what song (from 1978)..?
        Sing For The Day - Styx

31. 1960 UK band (Phil May, Dick Taylor, Brian Pendleton, Skip Alan, Wally Alan & John Povey) with only three UK top 40 hits. Their only song to chart both in UK and the Netherlands was "Cry To Me".
      Midnight To Six Man - Pretty Things



Hope you all had fun. A new audio quiz will be posted some time soon... ::)
