More Cover Madness.

This Mojo cover quiz is driving me nuts: I've only gotten 12 out of 25 so far (1, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14, 18, 19, 22 and 23). (Smoothie told me what #12 was, so that doesn't count.)

Any guesses for the rest? I'm sure I own #17, but can't place it. (And #20 must be the first Weezer album, but apparently it isn't.)

That's hilarious -- I was chatting with Smoothie and I figured what was missing was hiphop. How could I have not recognized 36 Chambers???

It's "Speakerboxxx!"

I thought #13 might be a CAN album, but then I saw the post-1993 caveat. None of these even look slightly familiar except for #15, but I still don't know what it is.

Wait -- #2 is the new Kate Bush album, isn't it?

Is #14 Scout Niblett's "I Am"?

Dan: no way I would have gotten #2. You're right.

#14: You crack me up. More famous than Scout Niblett.

(#6 is norah jones)

Karen just #16 as well -- too new though!

What #20 is not: "Nevermind," "Something about Airplanes," "Electric Version," "18," or "Oh, Inverted World." What the hell?

Okay, there are three of us working on this now: just got #20 and it's not the same blue! (Hint: It's a one-letter title.)

13 is a king Crimson album...forget the title.

Posted by: brown on April 4, 2006 08:54 PM

whoops...axe that. just read the caveat...sure looks like Can or Crimson though.

Posted by: brown on April 4, 2006 08:56 PM

12 is Blur's "Parklife!" gotta have some brit pop in the mix i suppose.

Posted by: brown on April 4, 2006 08:57 PM

Yeah, I thought #13 was a Stereolab or Turn On album. Apparently not.

It just occured to me that number 23 is probably the White Stripes album. I have an allergy to the WSs that's probably why I didn't get it right away.

Posted by: Dan on April 5, 2006 09:51 AM

23 is the white stripes album

Posted by: karen Swing on April 5, 2006 01:27 PM

I came across your blog while doing a search for sappiest love songs and landed in your blogs from last year... I must say... I couldnt stop reading them. You have a great sence of humor and a good insight on things. For some reason I felt the need to contact you and of course download Dan Fogelbergs song hahaha Thanks for being such an interesting person. Sometimes Its important to tell someone that whether r you know them or not. Thanks again for the read... ~Mandy
