You have it right, Al.
so how come I keep getting whistle rymes incorrect?
ah-hah...i just got it! duh.... only took me nearly an hour. :D
clue me in I can't figure it out
that's what i get for reading too far into things...i thought you were having a word play with the h's. where the "whistle" does not have an "h" in entwistle's last name but "rhymes" should have and you left that one out. do you get my drift or is it too deep? (like the ones currently in colorado)

you wrote "whistle rymes" vs. "wistle rhymes"

I'm upset! I can't get this thing to work. I know I know Pink Floyd and Supertramp and Led Zeppelin, but it won't score them for me.
And yes...

'haitches' be damned! this program/game isn't working for me and I know I got at least 2-2-2-2-2-2! correct. I can't be that impaired, I let the wife drive home!

I don't think it's a john entwistle album ... try iron maiden? it looks like one of their albums with their mascot, "eddie" in it.

OK got it to work. Put the band name first, duh? I still only got 13! Recognized 50 of them, just couldn't match the album/band in my brain. Plus, it's late/early...

Brad!!! I spent over half an hour trying every possible variation of John Entwistle and wistle rymes!!! with the "H", without the "H", backwards forwards upside down! and all the while i'm wondering to myself; "did john entwistle really have a noteable rock album?"

just like the whole "crowd dwell" thing, that's what I get for following your lead.

I give up. I guess I'm just not old or farty enough (tho' Lady Weaser would probably disagree with both!).

Al... sorry buddy. I thought I was right tho I never tried to type it in myself.
Sorry everyone!
And while I'm at it...
Sorry for the French maid stuff.
Sorry for the coconut bra affair.
Sorry for the off key harmonys on "Lucky Man" at the tour 2-1/2 years ago.

I actually got all 50 of the answers (due in large part to my freak of a brother-in-law who has over 7000 albums at his house and actually knows most of them by heart).

I scored 28 by myself before I gave up. I knew probably another 10 artists but did not know the names of the album.

My brother-in-law quickly nailed about 15 more before he had to research the remaining 10 or so. He knew all of the bands except for one. It was the titles he had to ultimately look up.

When everyone is ready I will post up the answers.
