Title: Guess The Album Cover
Post by: Cecilie on May 18, 2011, 05:56:51 AM
Just because I'm bored. Let's see if it catches on.

Rules are easy. A person posts a picture of an album cover blocking out the band/artist name and album title and it's up to the others to guess what album it is (remember to include both band/artist name and album title when guessing). The person who first gets it right gets to post the next picture for us to guess.

Don't make it too difficult.

So, I'll go first and I'll start with something easy.

It is Sepultura. Album is "Arise", I just looked it up. Explains why I didn't get it, never could get into Sepultura. It's your turn then, Jester.

I think there's two going at once, has been for a while, Too Few Lions seemed to answer one and so posted a new one.
Having two going at once adds a bit of interest.

Rules are there to be broken. I think Magic Pudding's right, having a couple of albums on the thread at the same time will keep people interested and keep the thread going

I had a feeling this might be a bit obscure...

Some clues: the band's name is a keyboard instrument, and they sing in Québécois...

easy peasy  ;) it's Harmonium with the very progilly titled 'Si On Avait Besoin d'une Cinquieme Saison' and yes, it's very obscure!

In an attempt to resurrect the thread here's a hopefully slightly less obscure cover;

this one was on Liberty

think this one's a bit too obscure too, it's German if that helps (and anyone cares!)

The German album: Yeti by Amon Düül II. (There's nothing wrong with obscure; if people don't get an album, there is no hard and fast rule against posting another.  Nothing is at stake here. In fact I think the more the merrier.)

Moving in a slightly different direction (and yes, this group might well be considered at least as obscure as Amon Düül II, but for different reasons):

Fireside Theatre - I think We're all Bozos on this Bus. Is that a ventriloquist dummy on the front of the LP?

Here's another, one of my favourite albums. Even a full-blooded heathen like myself has to admire a man who dresses like Jesus with a guitar on the front of an LP!

I'm embracing Recusant's more the merrier approach.
How can I not, he's so wise gently pointing out our mistakes with that cigar of his. (I'd insert a goodwill, no sarcasm smiley here if I had one).

It very well could be. I think one of the themes of the album is the way that people are manipulated by elements of modern society, and the efforts of some to break out of the standard pathways laid out for them; I guess a ventriloquist dummy could fit with that idea. Though I at one time had all of Firesign Theatre's albums on vinyl, they were tragically lost years ago, so I can't examine the image as closely as I would like.

I'm flattered, but I would hope that I'm seen as something besides a pedantic know-it-all (albeit a gentle one).

To be clear; I'm taking this in the lighthearted manner in which it's intended.

A nice continuation of the psychedelic theme: The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators by 13th Floor Elevators. I hate to break the streak, so I'm going to post at least one more in that vein.  I modified the image a bit to make it slightly more difficult, but probably not enough.

QuoteThe Notting Hillbillies was a country music project formed by Mark Knopfler, who was then lead guitarist and singer of the Dire Straits, with Brendan Croker, Steve Phillips, and Knopfler's bandmate Guy Fletcher. They made just one album, Missing...Presumed Having a Good Time.

Quote from: Recusant on July 09, 2011, 07:10:02 PMAlso, for exposing my occasional use of an image search (though it was TinEye, not Google) in the album cover thread, and thus bringing my fraud to a grinding halt. *shakes fist while twirling mustache*

Googling isn't such a bad thing, I'd probably mention I used it.
I was impressed when I first used the search by image feature, next week it'll just be another thing I expect to work without thinking about it.
