The Big Picture - The even BIGGER picture - ERASED

This section is STAGNATING!!! GAH! So it was time for a new quiz.

As in previous installments of this quiz, I've taken some relatively popular/well-known albums and cut out a part of their covers. Can you identify the album AND artist from the section provided? This time I've included albums from all different genres and decades to make it a little more interesting. You also get to double the fun because I've given you twenty to work with instead of the usual ten.

Limit of THREE ANSWERS per person for now, please. I'll lift the limit in a few days once everyone's had a chance to mull them over some. Good luck!

3 answers as in artist/title total or 3 answers as in 3 artists or 3 titles or 1 artist and 2 titles and so on and so on...

7. U2 - Achtung Baby?
19. Cyndi Lauper?

I think I know the album too for 19., but I didn't want to over-extend my guesses if you are counting artists as one and titles as one.


I thank you though for taking the time to make the quiz.

I think you over-analyzed this juuuuuuuuuuuust a tad. Three answers as in artist/title TOTAL. A full correct answer would contain both the artist and title and you can have up to THREE right now. I don't count half answers.

Having said that, your answer for #7 is correct and you have two more answers coming until I lift the limit.

I knew you'd be the one to get that one right. Nicely done.

lol Sorry about the over-analyzing. I tend to do that.

Is 19. Cyndi Lauper - She's so unusual?

You knew it all along. And here I thought I'd get people thinking that might be a beach setting. Nice job.

Back for another guess...

Is 15. Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band Live 1975-1985

That ankle looks familiar...

That's exactly what it is. You went three for three. Well done! I guess I made this quiz harder than I thought I did. Then again, poor Midas hasn't had a crack at it yet. He's in limbo.

I knew you'd get some answers once you finally got back online. Nicely done.

Good guess. This is the one I've been predicting you'd get since I made the quiz.

Excellent.

Third guess:

#10 Listen Without Prejudice, Vol. 1 - George Michael

Clean sweep. Maybe I'll lift the limit tomorrow since this one's been kinda slow. I shall ponder it now.

By the way...I always found it ironic that this album was called "Listen Without Prejudice" but the cover features a huge crowd of nothing but WHITE PEOPLE.
