Glantoirs 'Name The Album' Thread

[Glantoir]

No Tony, you are going the wrong way with the clue!

The title of this album actually refers to a house.

 

[Lazarus Short]

​Music from Big Pink?

​Music from Big Pink?

Correct!

 

[BlazeES]

Wow. Good job Lazbah.
I never would have guessed as the only 'The Band' I'm familiar with is "The Last Waltz".

I still don't understand the clues. Not enough Irish whiskey consumed me thinks ...

 

[Glantoir]

Yes good job Lazarus, and sorry for putting you through that Tony.
The first clue for Nando regarding being banned (The Band) the other one I know is a bad one but the smiley is a wink ,,,sounds like that!! (Pink-Wink)
'Big Pink' was the name the Band gave the house they were staying in at the time.

Hope that clears things a bit!

 

[Elite-ist]

Well-played, Laz. Eventually, I will solve one. It's obvious Pat likes to solve crosswords and Sudoko on his work breaks.

Nando.

 

[Lazarus Short]

​I'm astonished that I got that correct - I've never owned, or even heard, that record!

Gosh Laz, you should give it a spin, BTW what gave it away in the end?

A new easy one maybe?

This: "The title of this album actually refers to a house." As soon as I read that, the album title popped up in my mind.

I was laying in bed last light and the banned/Band thing finally clicked.

And hey! This is the mystery thread. No fun if not challenging.

 

[BlazeES]

How 'bout a hint ...

 

[Lazarus Short]

​That album slice is saying "Hendrix" to me...but I could be wrong.

 

[Glantoir]

How 'bout a hint ...

It's not 'the man'

 

[BlazeES]

It's not 'the man'

If the pic was twice as big, would it give it away?

 

[Glantoir]

Yeah, I think it would because its pretty distinctive.
Another clue then, it was recorded in the late 70's and the band went on to greater heights.

 

[BlazeES]

Drawing a blank.

 

[Glantoir]

2 brothers in the band.

 

[BlazeES]

"not the man" got the brain thinking about band names that sound like a dude's name but isn't - Skynyrd, Jethro Tull, etc ... but that doesn't trigger any visuals.

"Two brothers in the band" reinforced that name thing, but nada - zip - zero - zilch.

This one is tough.

 

[Web Police]

Kind of looks like AC/DC Highway to hell cover. Other then that I don't have a clue.
