    Adding to Carole's there's the Adele19 album at number one I think. We got the Duffy, the Led Zep and the Police as well. Great idea for a quiz!

    Only knew 4 - Carole already had them all. Personally, I love the Yvonne Me Lallas cover - they don't make 'em like that anymore. A real work of art!

    Good work you all!

    We only need 3 (album title), 4, 9 and 14

    9 is probably the hardest, it is a very popular (but not that good) Dutch band, in our quiz all the 25 teams identified it correctly...

    Strange that no-one yet has identified number 4...

    Steenbeck & glasshalfempty: correct!
    That leaves the album title of #3, and I will give you number 9: it's Dutch band Kane with their album "Fearless", Maroon5-like drivel, but for some incomprehensibe reason (probably the singer's good looks) immensely popular by young Dutch girls....
