The Rutles – Rutles – When I've tried to buy it in the past there've been rights issues, but I'll see if it is available again. I never understood what the problem was that allowed them to sell the film but not the soundtrack…

Sasha has to start getting + points to return to the lead.

No worries - you were still on P when I posted mine, so it was OK!

My handy list is letting me down as it hasn't heard of half of these... Let's see what I can do now:

Reel Music - The Beatles
Relics - Pink Floyd
Reveal - REM
Rockin' All Over the World - Status Quo
Running with Scissors - Weird Al Yankovic

Today I am mostly hearing:
'Recurring Dream: The Very Best of Crowded House'
'Red Rose Speedway' – Paul McCartney
'Red Rose Speedway: Archive Edition' – Paul McCartney
'Reload' – Tom Jones
'Reservoir Dogs' – [OST]

I think I'll give Icy the benefit of the doubt as 4 days ago he said 'Red Rose Speedway' and I gave him a point, but since then I have acquired the Archive 2 disc edition of that album so I'll award a bonus point.

Reel Music - The Beatles
Relics - Pink Floyd
Reveal - REM
Rockin' All Over the World - Status Quo
Running with Scissors - Weird Al Yankovic

Sasha, I'm surprised you've not guessed that album that I know you own as I believe you said you won? it at a special gathering. Mind you, I also think you may have said you didn't particularly like it either, so perhaps you've wiped it from your memory.

Aha - you remember well, thank you... It wasn't in my handy list so I had forgotten about it:

Return of the Champions - Queen-+Paul Rogers
Roses - Cranberries
Rush - Eric Clapton
Rush - Rush
Rust Never Sleeps - Neil Young

I’ll skip today, but let me know when you get to the esses

Just to let you know I'm following this sporadically, but I wouldn't know enough albums to join in.

Go through your CD rack and list 5 that begin with S

Today I am mostly hearing:
'Return of the Champions' – ¾ Queen +Paul Rodgers
'Return of the Pink Panther' – Henry Mancini [OST]
'Return to the Star-Club: Tracks that Inspired the Beatles' – [various]
'Revolver' – The Beatles
'Ringo' – Ringo Starr

Sasha:
Return of the Champions - Queen-+Paul Rogers
Roses - Cranberries
Rush - Eric Clapton
Rush - Rush
Rust Never Sleeps - Neil Young

Which parts of John and Freddie are you counting in the ¾, there?

Well, I see you are still on R's and I am very late to the party with no chance of winning. However, it was easier than I anticipated to find 5 albums in our collection beginning with S, so I'll jump in anyway.

Can I post them now?


Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - The Beatles
Supernatural - Santana
Leonard Cohen - Songs from a Room (not my record - can't stand the man)
Slaves and Masters - Deep Purple
Still got the Blues - Gary Moore.


(I couldn't find any beginning with "R", but I was too lazy to pull ALL of the LP's out to read the titles which weren't visible from the side.)

Today I am mostly hearing:
'Rock 'n' Roll' – John Lennon
'Rock Spectacle' – Barenaked Ladies
'Rock Survivor' – Denny Laine
'Rolled Gold' – The Rolling Stones
'Roots of Paul McCartney, The' – [various]

Welcome to the quiz, TC!
I have two copies of Sgt Pepper's, the original and the 50th Anniversary edition with the bonus disc, so that means double points for you.
Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - The Beatles
Supernatural - Santana
Leonard Cohen - Songs from a Room
Slaves and Masters - Deep Purple
Still got the Blues - Gary Moore.

Scores (in Alphabetical Order):
Icy North: 118
