Not a real quiz but..........
 

While Jam, who's a busy boy, is working on the next quiz proper try these. Winning doesn't mean you get to set another it's just a bit of fun.

They are in the format of 64 S on a CB = 64 Squares on a Chess Board.

All you need do is decipher them. Most are Prog related but a few aren't.

1) 2 A by Y with PB, Y and T and a W.
2) O 1 A by G with RW
3) 75 T by FK on AM PL
4) 21 D S D of the Y
5) 100 C in a D

1) 2 A by Y with PB, Y and T and a W = 2 albums by Yes with Peter Banks, Yes and Time and a Word.
2) O 1 A by G with RW = Only 1 album by Genesis with Ray Wilson.
3) 75 T by FK on AM PL = 75 tracks by Flower Kings on Aural Moon playlist.
5) 100 C in a D = 100 cents in a dollar.

Hmmmmmmm........
 

Obviously too easy.:D

Then again Bob's a smart guy so .............

still don't have #4 though

Re: Not a real quiz but..........
 

Most = more than half = 3. Few also means three. A couple is two. "most are prog but a couple aren't "may be more descriptive. The least you could have when most are but a few aren't are 8 total (5 and 3).

All of this to say I don't know # 4! Assuming the Y is "Year". The second D could be "Days".

Or could it be 21 Delivered Sucky Discs of the Yesspaz?"

Yep, I'm going to hell for that one!

Re: Re: Not a real quiz but..........
 

Closer to 50 or 60 actually :eek:

Let me check for sure. I'm interested now...

Re: Re: Not a real quiz but..........
 

Man.......where the hell did THAT come from?

OK..........

Three are Prog related and two aren't. Or maybe that should be:

Three are Prog related and two are not. Or even:

Three of the puzzles listed above are on the subject of progressive rock music and the remaining two are of a more general nature.

:D :p :D

So am I Spaz..............If you could let us know which ones that would be useful too as it would help me schedule my day as far as when to go AFK to make the dinner, go to the loo, poke my eyes out with hot pokers or kill myself. :D :D :D

Ouch! My tongue is so firmly in my cheek I'm developing an ulcer.

I did a rough count and there are 95 whole or partial albums on the Moon I donated. Now, when I say partial, I mean as little as one song. So, FULL albums, it's a little over 60, with double-cds counting as two, such as Neal Schon's Electric World and The Appleseed Cast's Low Level Owl.

In addition to the above mentioned, there's 5 Don Cab, 5 GYBE, 4 KBA, 1 Journey, plus tracks from 2 others, 9 Iona, 2+ Sigur Ros, 2 Billy Mahonie (although PDJ bought the first Billy Mahonie at about the time I sent it...) and others...

Later.

This one's a stretch:

4) 21 D S D of the Y = 21 decades since discovery of the Yttrium.

In case you wanted to know, the element Yttrium was discovered in 1794 by Johann Gadolin. It was named after Yterrby, Sweden. It is used in color TVs and radars.

I'd love to say yes Bob for the thought processes if nothing else but............No!

Rick was close talking about days and years.

oh the disparity!
 

between my white trash answer and Bob's answer.

We do have the Spectrum of tast on the Moon, do we not?

Amazing..........
 

I only got as far as "4 KBA" in this sentence when I realised that that's 14 albums I would be happy never to hear again as long as I live. Sorry Spaz but it's a fact.

Was listening to the Don Cab last night and thought that if Jim is thinking of pulling the Philip Glass from the playlist then this has to go too. Dreadful IMHO. I picked up my guitar and what I played sounded pretty similar and I'm the first to admit......I can't play a note.

Still, I know that there are people out there who do like them and from me thank you for the Iona and the sigur ros.......well one of them anyway.
:D :p :D

Re: Amazing..........
 

Jim isn't thinking about it, he's pulled Philip Glass' "Music In 12 Parts" - the rest of his stuff we had is still there. I may edit some of the Don Cab out some day - I like most of it, but I must have heard the same song as you yesterday Keithie - I was thinking "I added THIS?":rolleyes:

Re: Amazing..........
 

Ahh, glad I could be of assistance :D


BTW, which Don Cab song was it?

Re: Re: Amazing..........
 

Always knew you were a helpful chap spaz. :)

As for the title of the song, I was so Traumatized by the affair I've got amnesia..................even the thought of looking to find out has me shaking like a leaf. Maybe poda can remember. She shouted in Black at the time that she "loves the Don....."

Re: Re: Re: Amazing..........
 

This is what's great about prog, and music in general. While you and some others don't care for Don Cab, GYBE!, and KBA, Poda and I quite dig them. On the flip side, there are a lot of folks who like a whole bunch of stuff I don't, and so AM plays it all!

"On the flip side, there are a lot of folks who like a whole bunch of stuff I don't, and so AM plays it all!"

except for Nick Drake.

Sorry, couldn't resist



:D

Might as well give the answer..........
