Thanks for the update as always @Hannah, and congrats to all the winners.

I managed to get all 5 correct , but admittedly, I had to guess at a couple of them.

[sodojka]

Thank you @Hannah for the 102 Update .
102 is a lucky number in Poland. When we want to say that something is great, sensational, perfect, we say it is "on 102".
Thank you for the leaderboard award and for choosing my photo.
This update is “on 102” for me .
I guessed 2 answers to the questions: Pink Floyd and Michael Jackson.

Sounds like a plan but I’m not sure we live on the same Continent.

I hope everyone has a great week!
PS Thanks for the quiz, it was fun. I think I got them all right, but the answer sheet disagrees. It says I got #2 wrong.

[ktkundy]

I struggled with number 2 as well. Initially I wanted to go thriller since I know it sold a whole lot but then I wasn’t sure if that was deemed rock since Michael Jackson was the king of pop I thought. This meant that it would the the AC/DC albums then. I’m still on the fence and can see both sides. It was still fun regardless

[Steve976]

Personally I like AC/DC better so I’m not complaining. Heck I think it should’ve been Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon. I bought enough copies myself to make it #1.

[ktkundy]

Dark side of the moon really was a great album for sure! Can’t help but love Pink Floyd! Also happy Zeptember!

[Duane_Lester]

I am a more ac/dc as well

[Chiquinho]

Partycast is strong, especially when regulars connect their speakers.
So distance will not matter, but there could be some delay!
