Also please let me know if anyone wants the quiz extended until Saturday a.m.
That would be lovely, chrissie! 
I have some things to do tomorrow, so I won’t be able to guess that much. 
Another whole day would sure help a lot.
I just remembered you forgot to include one of my favourite pianists 
But you can’t really see the piano, and the pic would be too easy to guess.
Everything you need to know about me has already been told.
SweetDalilah (& everyone else except for zobraks) I’ll extend the quiz but please don’t get more points than zobraks. zobraks, the quiz for you finished yesterday - I hope everyone’s happy!
Seriously, the quiz will now end on Saturday at 1.00p.m.(GMT) (sorry zobraks!)
Personally I’m always relieved when a quiz I’m participating in ends so I can get back to doing some normal or even useful things instead of obsessively trawling through game screenshots (which I love doing too much!)
SweetDalilah, I saw some different angles on that screenshot but as you said, you can’t really see the piano & it’s very distinctive so for those reasons I decided not to use it!
And how about this one? I’m sure no one would get it.
Recently finished: Four Last Things 4/5, Edna & Harvey: The Breakout 5/5, Chains of Satinav 3,95/5, A Vampyre Story 88, Sam Peters 3/5, Broken Sword 1 4,5/5, Broken Sword 2 4,3/5, Broken Sword 3 85, Broken Sword 5 81, Gray Matter 4/5\nCurrently playing: Broken Sword 4, Keepsake (Let\‘s Play), Callahan\‘s Crosstime Saloon (post-Community Playthrough)\nLooking forward to: A Playwright’s Tale

So we’re supposed to restrain ourself from guessing just so zobraks could win again? 
He can’t be the only one who gets to taste the feeling of winning. It could be HandsFree, me or anyone else for that matter who wins (We all get an equal chance, it’s democracy after all 
).
And zobraks can keep trying to guess more screens if he wants to win that much (like the rest of us do) He still has 31 pictures to guess! 
If you were joking, disregard everything I said.

Hah, I do the same thing, so I’m quite relieved when quiz is over too, however we need time to guess these 8 unguessed pics. 23 in particular is bugging me, I keep having this feeling I’ve seen it or the style before, but I can’t find it.

And how about this one? I’m sure no one would get it.
Hi diego, I have exactly the same screenshot from Curse of Monkey Island which I decided not to use because I thought EVERYONE would know it!

SweetDalilah, I was completely joking!!!! - it was meant as a humorous response to zobrak’s humorous comments & not intended to offend anyone, least of all zobraks!
Keep guessing! - the scores for the top 4 places are very close & yes! everyone has an equal chance!
I’ll extend the quiz ... the quiz will now end on Saturday at 1.00p.m.(GMT)
OK, but if I don’t get enough points by then I’ll ask you to extend the quiz even further (like losers do).

I did it for the sake of all of us (not including you, you’re an entity of your own)
Why don’t you man up and admit that you’re scared of someone overthrowing your score? 
I really expected you’d do better here, you know. (You did a great in the last quiz, so I felt motivated to do better ) I could have never thought that we would end up having the same score (like we do now) 
Seriously, 30 unguessed pics and you’re saying you can’t find anymore? Don’t worry, I can. Tražim punom parom.

Oh don’t worry, I have troubles figuring out jokes at first sight (probably because I’m not a native English speaker), but I did suspect it’s a joke, so it was meant more as means of teasing zobraks.
Oh did I mention how much I like the title of the Quiz? It’s such a coincidence that I recently discovered the funk genre and have been listening to it non stop.

Hi SweetDalilah, I do angst about what I post sometimes as I realise my sense of humour doesn’t always translate too well!
Anyway, the inspiration for the quiz title comes from this catchy song from 1976:
Just a reminder: quiz ends at 1.00 p.m. tomorrow GMT - that is 12 hours from now!

Sneaky pic from Lost Horizon. I didn’t recognize it and would never have thought it was from Lost Horizon in the first place…

Nice to participate in an easy quiz for once! 
Well done zobraks and SweetD (and everyone who found more than a few). Out of the pics I missed there were only 2 or 3 I think I should have found, like Waxworks and S&M hit the road. But now I’ve learned about many games I had never heard before, so there’s a lot to check out. Accolade Comics, Terrormolinos, The Detective, A Raindog Story, The Stone Circle, Space Becherovka…
Thanks chrissie, very fun, not to mention educational quiz. 
Excellent quiz, Chrissie! I’m still kicking myself over a few of the more obvious ones I missed, but what struck me when hunting for my hunches was how relatively few games have musicians in them. Lots of games have pianos, guitars, and even violins, but they just seem to be for decoration. Hats off to you for finding so many different ones. I’m just sorry it’s over because now I have no excuse for not cleaning the house.
