Choose the question below that is most applicable to the answer above. Make a note of the Question Number
 

Q05a
 		  


Give a catalogue of song-titles that were considered for the Novum album
Procol have had some peculiar song-titles, but surely common sense rules out 'Megabit Oaf Sheet' and several others


 
Q05b  


Give a list of anagrams of the titles of all the songs released worldwide, from the Novum sessions, by Procol Harum
Might be true, if 'The Only One' were not on the album


 
Q05c  


Give an inventory of anagrams of the titles of almost all the songs released worldwide, from the Novum sessions, by Procol Harum
This seems to fit the list pretty well


 
Q05d  


Guess the names or subjects of the XII paintings that were hanging in the vocal booth where Procol recorded Novum.
Again, common sense says that there were no paintings hanging in the vocal booth, and that 'Gut-Thong Cadet' is an unlikely title anyway. And there's a much more sensible answer above
