    Ok, I just skimmed through this entire thread and looked at all the cover art attached. Wanna know how many I recognized?

    Zip! Cero! Nada!

    I guess I need to start going to BB, CC, and B&N and just peruse the CD cover art! :p

    The bands name comes from a renamed song by the group Simple Minds. This song appeared on the LP Life In A Day under the title "No Cure

    The 1990 album title contains the name of a city known for gambling.

    Thanks. Not my style, but the Lynch Mob originated from the breakup of Dokken. They were an '80's classic metal band that was pretty successful. George Lynch, a highly respected guitarist, went on to form the Lynch Mob.

    This next cover shouldn't last long.

    This progressive rock band spans a couple of years shy of four decades with 15 albums. This was their most recent album released in 2003. Their live debut was opening for a legend with the first name of Jimi. The band has the distinction of having an Asteroid in the 14001-15000 range named after them in September of ’94.

    This American songwriter and musician has a reputation for being reclusive but has a diehard following with many admirers in the music industry. Think roots and blues rock, Tulsa sound.
