Default Classic Rock Album Quiz #5 -- The Killer

Alright, buoys and gulls, here's another blast from the past with the largest and toughest collection of album covers yet. But before you get a look at them, lets take a look at the current point totals:

hooter - 15
Kolzig - 12.5
remixor - 11
Pappapisshu - 7.5
mycroft - 5
KASHMIR - 5
SamandMax - 5
Skinkie - 4
myhrik - 2
doughy white - 2
Vel - 2
Curt - 1


There are also some New Rules this time around. For starters, Questions 1-12 will be worth one point, while Questions 13-20 will be worth two points. All point values will be cut in half after hints are given. And finally, the two point leaders (hooter and remixor) may only answer Questions 17-20 for the first twelve hours. In other words, you folks who are struggling to make up ground could answer those four questions first and shut hooter and remixor out for the first twelve hours.

Is everybody ready? Then GO!

And mycroft "keeps himself alive" by drawing first blood! (BTW, I kinda figured that either #3 or 4 would be the first guessed. )

Right you are, Pappa. The last really good Whitesnake album.

EXCELLENT! Pappa grabs one of the big Two Point covers. I thought that one was a real toughie. You must be an Iggy fan, Pappa.

HaiDang actually loses two points for that flagrant foul!

That's another one right for you, Kolzig. You and Pappa are really battling it out for third place right now!

Slow and steady wins the race, Kolzig. You're chipping away at the leaders one album at a time. Good job!

Nobody else seems to be answering right now except me so I guess I'll go and get my points

#8 Genesis - A Trick of the Tail

And BacardiJim, damn I'd love to see Rush live someday, that would be something wonderful, I'm sure of that.

Well, at least next summer I'm going to see Metallica in Helsinki, I'm happy that I even get to see them. I have never seen them live.

Genesis it is! The rate you're going, you'll pass remixor.


And as far as Rush, they were awesome. Especially the first time I saw them. I wasn't a huge fan of Grace Under Pressure so it detracted a bit that they played several songs from that album. On the other hand, I got to see them play several songs from Moving Pictures, which hadn't been released yet the first time I saw them.
