There's already a 63. That one should be 64.

Yes! (it was a way easy one)

Chris Barrus (Elvis Telecom), Thursday, 27 November 2008 02:21 (fifteen years ago) link

The cows were the tipoff.

ahh fuck i've screwed the whole thing up. any guesses from what I managed to post?

Nomi Malone and Her Bloodstains (Stevie D), Thursday, 27 November 2008 04:29 (fifteen years ago) link

I feel like this is totally mega obvious and I'm a fool for even posting it.

Nomi Malone and Her Bloodstains (Stevie D), Thursday, 27 November 2008 04:35 (fifteen years ago) link

67.
Gee, it's almost like these got through the filter unaltered.

66. Aphex Twin?

jaymc, Thursday, 27 November 2008 05:01 (fifteen years ago) link

[sidenote, this is the most amazing game ever]

the other Alex in MTL, in fact (Alex in Montreal), Thursday, 27 November 2008 05:04 (fifteen years ago) link

66 yes totally. what tipped you?

Nomi Malone and Her Bloodstains (Stevie D), Thursday, 27 November 2008 05:04 (fifteen years ago) link

^^^already done for #22 (I almost chose the pepper, too!)

jaymc, Thursday, 27 November 2008 05:04 (fifteen years ago) link

66 yes totally. what tipped you?

I think the lollipop woman's mischievous grin just reminded me of RDJ, actually! Then the monochrome clock sort of confirmed it. And the blue/white of Windowlicker.

jaymc, Thursday, 27 November 2008 05:06 (fifteen years ago) link

man. don't know how i missed that. sorry, jaymc.

the other Alex in MTL, in fact (Alex in Montreal), Thursday, 27 November 2008 05:09 (fifteen years ago) link

that said, i almost prefer the pepper to the actual cover.

the other Alex in MTL, in fact (Alex in Montreal), Thursday, 27 November 2008 05:09 (fifteen years ago) link

xp I know, it's such a sad-looking pepper.

jaymc, Thursday, 27 November 2008 05:11 (fifteen years ago) link

Now that I've redone #21 and Alex in MTL has redone #22, I predict the entirety of the 20s will be repeated, in order.

For the life of me, I can't quite get 21/52 but it's dancing right on the edge of my mind.

the other Alex in MTL, in fact (Alex in Montreal), Thursday, 27 November 2008 05:24 (fifteen years ago) link

DIZZEE!!!!!

ok. last one before i go back and smack my head against the wall trying to get the unsolved ones, but i couldn't help but post after discovering the strong resemblance b/t the first picture and the album cover...

the other Alex in MTL, in fact (Alex in Montreal), Thursday, 27 November 2008 05:37 (fifteen years ago) link

x-post -- Of course I could see Primal Scream using the second cover shot for real.

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 27 November 2008 05:37 (fifteen years ago) link

49. Wilco?

Yes. Thought I'd throw you off with the Woody Guthrie albums.

#32 is still in play. I'll say that the artist's album covers actually kinda looked like the examples being given by the web site.

өөө (Pleasant Plains), Thursday, 27 November 2008 06:08 (fifteen years ago) link

I thought that #57 would have been figured out by now.

Chris Barrus (Elvis Telecom), Thursday, 27 November 2008 06:59 (fifteen years ago) link

Ah, is #57 Echo & the Bunnymen up to the S/T record?

The colours look close to perfect, but I could be overly influenced by the boat in an Ocean Rain-ish purple setting!

Nag! Nag! Nag!, Thursday, 27 November 2008 07:31 (fifteen years ago) link

Nice (& lucky I guess) touch with the "speech bubble" in 43c jaymc! :D
