Title: Album Cover Quiz
Post by: mini-thumper on January 04, 2010, 07:24:20 PM
Anyone know which band these album covers belong to?

My son was called off work as the ground was frozen solid. He and workmates started doing the Q magazine quiz but got stuck on these album covers, especially No. 20. Have to admit I don't know any of them but the first two look Prog. Rock/Roger Dean-ish!

Hi

No17 is a Maplin Catalogue circa 1975?   ;D

I do know 18 but cannot remember it at the present - Pretty Things or UFO spring to mind but neither show up on iTunes.

I do know it  and i will be a "Doh!" moment when answered.

Doh as an expression came into the English language not through the Simpsons but through 'cussing' with out taking the Lord's name in vain.  Duw is the Welsh for God... Usless bit of info for today.

No 19 is 'Express' by Love and Rockets - a somewhat dodgy '80s outfit formed by the fella from Bauhaus.

I had a Love and Rockets 12" single at one time, I seem to remember it had a piccy of a Harley on the cover.

Funny band Bauhaus, they recorded a demo track called 'Bela Lugosi's Dead' and it impressed the record company so much they put it out straight away. It went straight to number one in the indie chart and stayed there forever. They seemed to spend the rest of their career not quite doing as well as their first effort.
