Winehouse isn't American?

^ Yeah, I didn't see that. I don't know it.

These are two of the other four I had in mind. I only asked for three but there are four who are well known.

On the list of the 69 albums that have sold 20M or more, which is the newest album and which is the oldest?

The newest has gotta be pop. Gaga or Adele or something. Oldest maybe Pink Floyd?

No you guys are right I added 'American' really late so someone wouldn't start listing a bunch of unknown foreigners. Yes, Winehouse is British.

Neither is Brian Jones for that matter.

It just seems odd that he wouldn't have answered the two he knew up front instead of one then a half hour later add the other, that's all. No foul.

You are somewhat correct. I knew the first question that I answered but the second I suspected Bohnam so i texted a friend for confirmation and posted it after he got back with me. So in a way you could say I googled.

I knew it!!

LOL just kidding. Texting a friend is perfectly legal in my OC trivia game.

3 a.) I was going to say the Beatles 1 in 2000, but i was reminded of Adele / 21 which probably sold 20 million

3 b.) oldest one i can think of would be a Beatles album, Sgt Pepper probably

#3 Oldest is probably Elvis self title first album.

#9 Rosilita

I looked it up after I posted, I think you are correct.

#4 Herman's Hermits?

That's wrong, I should have gone with my first guess, but ruled them out for some reason.

Mickey Dolenz-John Lennon
Michael Nesmith- George Harrison
Davey Jones-Paul McCartney
Peter Tork-Ringo Starr

I remember seeing that on there. Pretty sure I'd already read it before at that point tho.
