   33 here – same as Sharl, if not the title, then the band… Most of the ones I didn’t know were in the 40’s

   Just took that test again, together with Dr Sharleena: we ended up with 28! L’union fait la force! Still, SOFA’s 33 is rather impressive, I must say… Care to back up that claim, buddy? ;)

    43 is Aphex Twin, not RHCP: LINK
    46 looks like Lou Reed, although I’m not sure

    Thanks Milhouse!
    8, 30, & 42 I owned – those were the ones that were driving me crazy…
    Oddly enough, I owned 9 also – missed it like I missed Weasels.
    Ah well. At my age and with my history, I count myself fortunate that I remember my name…
