[Screaming Lord Byron]

Oh, you may know who it is, but what was it's name.

OK, it had several names.

[TheBlob]

1. Album, Compact Disc, Cassette...

Public Image LTD

On Edit: I'm at work, so someone else can post a new one in my place.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

2. Yup. What about this one.

[phillybri]

3. That looks like something from Yes or the Alan Parsons Project...

:shrug:

[Screaming Lord Byron]

4. Nope. I think the band are depicted on front.

P.S. It's really difficult to find album covers without the names on them.

[XNASA]

5. Heaven 17 - 'Penthouse & Pavement'

[Screaming Lord Byron]

6. Somehow I knew you'd know. Well done. How about this.

It's difficult to find challenging ones.

[dwckabal]

13. How 'bout this one:

[Eureka]

33. Umm, thats pretty easy :-)

for an aussie. Actually, if you are looking for a heap of albums with few or no identifying words on the cover thats a great place to look.

[dwckabal]

14. Another one, but easier:

[LTR]

15. King Crimson

Album name escapes me.

[Donkeyboy75]

17. Damn, I was beat to the punch

Great album, though.

[alfredo]

21. In the Court of The Crimson King- King Crimson.

Try this on for size



It should be easy

[Rabrrrrrr]

23. Alice Cooper, Billion Dollar Babies

Great album!!

But I'm not posting any covers, so someone else can do it instead of me.

[alfredo]

26. Good one

A clue because part of the title is on the cover, but not all of it

[Rabrrrrrr]

28. Nah, I knew it because I played the heck out of my copy

when I was a kid. And *I* had it on precious vinyl. :-)

[alfredo]

31. I used to go see him in Birmingham Mich back in the early 70's.

i remember him returning from the west coast, where he was being groomed by Zappa. He came on stage and it was electric. Gone was the cheapness, and there was something new about him. He broke into the song, "I'm Eighteen", and I knew he was on his way to stardom.

the original artwork for "Alice Cooper Pretties for you" hung in Zappa's living room.

[LTR]

16. This one is just too obvious

[Whitacre D_WI]

18. Have a go at this one, plebian fools:

[alfredo]

19. This group has just recently used this skull on two CD's

Name the group



Extra credit, name the CD titles. Couldn't post the covers because that would give it away.

[LTR]

20. I know

But I looked at the website. ;)

[alfredo]

24. It's a terrific site too.

Lorena and her hubby are both so smart it is scary.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

25. What are these, scoundrels?

[Kenneth ken]

34. first one

is The jam - The Gift. I knew it was the Jam, had to search for the particular title.

on the 2nd, I dunno.

I also don't know how to post pix, so I won't.

[gorrister]

35. The second one is "Three Imaginary Boys" from the Cure

love that album.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

27. And these, huh? huh? Go on, guess.

[Colin Ex]

29. My guesses

I know for a fact that the first one is Rooty by the Basement Jaxx.

I think the next one is a Fatboy Slim record?

Not sure on the other two.

-C

[Screaming Lord Byron]

30. I'll give you Rooty and the Fatboy Slim

Halfway between the Gutter and the stars. Lets see if anyone else gets the other two, both by English bands. I didn't go out to just pick all English bands, I just noticed that they all were. Will boost US content!

[Sufi Marmot]

32. The bottom one is Roxy Music's first album...

-SM, who appreciates Roxy Music album covers almost as much as the music inside... ;-)

[LTR]

41. "Republic" by New Order

[Screaming Lord Byron]

42. Yup.

[gorrister]

36. ok...

[Screaming Lord Byron]

37. Power, Corruption and Lies - New Order.

A Peter Saville design.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

38. Here's some for the morning.

[muriel_volestrangler]

43. Second one is Gorillaz - Gorillaz

so I can now post mine:

[Screaming Lord Byron]

44. Meddle by ver Floyd. What about these?

[CanuckAmok]

45. Zappa's Hot Rats?

It's been a while, but I think that's it.

Gorillaz

I've seen the last one, but I don't remember who it is.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

47. Yep, Hot Rats and Gorillaz.

It's lucky you didn't get #3, otherwise this town wouldn't be big enough for the both of us, if you catch my drift (clue).

[Ricdude]

46. I think I have two...

Top is definitely Hot Rats by FZ.

Second is Gorillaz?

No clue on the third...

[dwckabal]

48. Third one is...

Sparks--Kimono My House

[Screaming Lord Byron]

49. We have a winner! What about these, then.

[XNASA]

50. The top one is Roxy Music "Country Life", of course..........

I mean, who 'wouldn't' know that!!! ;-)

The other two are I'm guessing Rod Stewart and Great White?

[Screaming Lord Byron]

51. The second one is Rod's 'Atlantic Crossing'

Cover used to terrify me as a child. The third is definitely not Great White.

[Bridget Burke]

39. Here's one from Houston....

[XNASA]

40. Here's a big favorite of mine.

Everytime I need a new guitar lick, I plagiarize without shame from this album.

[dwckabal]

52. OK< here's two more--not so easy
