Heavy Metal Headache- 'Bramble Tunes?!?!' Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Leeroy71: I'm archiving all of my caches due to a change in circumstances, on-going problems with pain/ injury and following feedback from a fellow cacher.

Thanks to all of you who visited and enjoyed my caches and to those who didn't enjoy them, sorry but I tried my best. It's time to let somebody else have a go.

When able in the future, I still hope to get out and about finding the odd cache.

Geocache Description:


A musical photo puzzle inspired by a funny moment that happened to me whilst out caching today. For all you fellow heavy metal headbangers out there!!

The cache is NOT at the published coords, they are for an unrelated field near by.

I love a happy coincidence I do. This one's a cracker!! I've been out caching today, listening to my iPod set to shuffle (with more than 34,000 songs to choose from) and whilst in the throws of retrieving a cache that involved getting in amongst some very prickly, vicious brambles, a song called "Thorn In My Side" by a heavy metal band called Quicksand came on and that made me chuckle. Then as i was returning the cache back into it's bramble infested home, the next random song , called "Prickly Thorn, But Sweetly Worn" by The White Stripes , came on and I thought this is getting a little weird!! Then, in a pre-emptive moment, I choose a song called "Ramble On" by Led Zeppelin and as i was wheeling away, i was singing along to the chorus, in  full voice, singing "Bramble On" instead!!! Then i had a full blown attack of the titters!!

Have a look at the 4 collages of 16 Heavy Metal album covers photos in the 'Image Gallery' below, let's call 'em A-P, and see if you can find the connection. With the photos, they are arranged as follows.
A B
C D etc

The cache can be found at the following location;
 
N 51° 2(A-B).(C-D)(E-F)(G-H) W 000° 5(I-J).(K-L)(M-N)(O-P)
