Subject: Album Cover Quiz # 3 (1960s to early 1990s music) Quiz Completed

Written By: warped on 05/17/13 at 6:08 pm

Quiz #3.  I'm thinking this one may be more difficult, in general.

Below are some album cover photos. You give me the title of the album AND the artist for 1 point. You provide either the artist or album title for half a point.

Limit off.
