    It was a good balance. Some we got straight away (Wu Tang Clan). Some we had multiple guesses. But they were always interesting. I wouldn't have found out about the !!!! who bought the Wu Tang record otherwise. Make you realize how relevant The Third Man still is. And although I'd already heard the Wu Tang story, it's a very interesting one for those that hadn't. I'd never really considered music could be a private art form before, but thinking about it, in what way is it different for a privately commissioned painting nobody else will see?

    Cheers michaels, you're welcome.

    I am very interested in peoples' thoughts on the difficulty of the questions. I try to ask stuff where the answer is interesting or the question makes you think.

    The big challenge is ask a question that cannot be easily searched for on the internet
    Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are incapable of forming such opinions.

    Difficulty was just fine.
    I guessed on most and googled afterwards if the topic was of interest to me.
    (as opposed to the antrobus way: googling first and then having a guess ;))
    Don't blame me, I voted Remain.

    I've given up trying TBH. The only real way you can do that is to ask, What links a, b & c.....? which is restrictive to say the least. Or to ask questions in really tortuous ways.
