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

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

[sidenote, this is the most amazing game ever]

66 yes totally. what tipped you?

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

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.

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

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

70.a) http://static03.visualsearchlab.com/alamy/photos.square/34/82/A6CD88.jpg http://static02.visualsearchlab.com/alamy/photos.square/41/B4/AAMBBF.jpg http://static03.visualsearchlab.com/alamy/photos.square/DE/2E/A41EC3.jpg

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

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.

DIZZEE!!!!!

Yessir.

pole!! :D

Sorry! Should be #72!

http://www.quartzcity.net/ilx/ilx_coverrecognize05.jpg

Hahaha, nice. Verve.

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...

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

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.

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

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!

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

Oops I mean G00blar obv! Sorry.

P.S. Looking from a longer distance or taking off your glasses doesn't help too much

P.P.S. What the freak is #34??????????????

74: http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y7/greatesthit/albcov3.jpg

Talking Heads I think! The Rauschenberg colours did it.

I don't think anyone's going to get my #33, but I'll repost #31 properly, as it should actually not be that hard if you think about it.

These things are like magic eye puzzles for me. I can't figure them out at all, but as soon as one's guessed, I'm like Oh yeah!

How is anyone getting these? It seems basically impossible to me.

A lifetime of thumbing through records. You train your eyes to recognize The B-52's debut in a flash so you can get on with your search for Touch: "Without You" (Supertronics 1987) as quickly as possible.

63 - The Zombies?

Fuck, I mean 64.

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

Yes!

Oh! 58 is Michael Jackson, right?

Is 70 Broken Social Scene?

Great thread this btw.

Yes! Was it the orange-y one that clued you in? In retrospect, it's the only one that REALLY matches.

31 is La Dusseldorf.
