Geocache Description:


A long time ago, I was caching with a certain Metalhead when this idea came to me for a series of caches in his honor. That was close to a decade ago, but the seed planted so many years ago has finally germinated.

This fourth cache in the Monsters of Rock extended (MoRe) series is more in line with the original Innervisions cache where all you have to work with is the album art, so it is a bit trickier than the first two. For this one and the third one, all the clips are culled from songs that, when released on vinyl at least, were over 10 minutes long. Some of these you'll certainly recognize from their shortened radio edit versions, others you may need to fire up Shazam to discover.

Having played in a band a number of times over the years, I know the skill that is required to be successful at it and I marvel at the ability of these musicians to be able to repeat some of these albums in their entirety, decades later. This replaying of albums in entirety was once a unique phenomenon for touring bands, but now is quite common. A couple of these shows I regret missing, "Astral Weeks" by Steely Dan, "Fizzle Fry" by Primus but I have managed to catch ELP doing all of Tarkus and Jethro Tull doing (most of) "Aqualung", both incredible shows. It isn't necessarily the same as playing a concept album cover to cover as The Pink Floyd pretty much did for every show after Dark Side, but for other personal favorites like Yo La Tengo or the masters of extended space-jamming, YES, it's a pretty awesome way to see where a band's collective head was at when these albums came out a lifetime ago.

Assign letters A-J to the song clips in linked Monster Mash sequence. Once you have them figured out, you can assign the numbers on the covers to the letters to get your solve for the final cords.
Final Cords are: N44˚AB.CDE W88˚FG.HIJ
