I enjoyed this one chadgates, missed a few but that's what makes it fun. Spent a fair amount of time trying to pin down #19 without much luck.

Hey unfocused, yes indeed, you got 15/20 on Sonic Creeper. I made Ice Station Zebra too difficult, but Creeper feels about right to me in hindsight. I'm pretty sure LauraC knows the answer to the last song in Sonic Creeper. I'm holding the 5 unsolved Creeper songs hostage until chadgates reveals all the ones I missed in puzzle 005, lol. (unfocused, your IM is shut off, or I would have sent you the ones you got wrong).

I'm not making any more puzzles until I get some reps for those, they each took 3 hours to make (high production quality). Lay some points on chadgates too, for all the hard work he put into those. They are not easy to make, like he said, the hard part is selecting the songs and what section you want to clip and paste from them into the puzzle. All it really involves with the program is using the start line at the end of top master string of recordings, then recording a new clip below the main one on 2nd track below the main one, highlight, copy and paste (from edit tab) the section you want to clip from the new bottom recording into the top recording, with no overlap by using start line at end of top string before you hit record. Play with your audacity, it will come to you.

This is my best guess for puzzle 006, think I got 15 of them.

Spoiler
1) Frogman Henry - Ain't Got No Home
2) Kenny Loggins - I'm Alright
3) Dobie Gray - Drift Away
4) Pretenders - Back on the Chain Gang
5) Robert Palmer - Bad Case of Lovin' You (Doctor Doctor)
6) Sweet - Ballroom Blitz
7) T Rex - Bang A Gong
8) Young Rascals - It's A Beautiful Morning
9) ???
10) ???
11) Bobby Day - Rockin' Robin
12) Led Zeppelin - Living Loving Maid
13) Eagles Song ?
14) Billy Idol - White Wedding
15) KC & The Sunshine Band - Boogie Shoes
16) Thin Lizzy - The Boys are Back in Town
17) Hall & Oates - I Can't Go For That
18) ???
19) Sounds like....Great White - Save All Your Love, or Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here, but it's not either. This is gettable, but not by me, lol
20) Billy Thorpe - Children of the Sun

As for Puzzle006 you answered 15 and only one of those is partially incorrect.

Spoiler

Led Zeppelin is right, but that is not Livin' Lovin' Maid.

9) may be too tough - hint (the title of the next puzzle i will post)
10) far more popular song by a band featured in Ice Station Zebra (I did not get it).
13) not the Eagles, but actually associated with them in a way.
18) may be too tough - hint (lead singer for this band also had a sucessful solo career including a popular 70's TV show theme)
19) this is the biggest and possibly only radio hit for this band. The song is from 1971.

Yeah, 13 is incorrect, but you knew this. 17 is incorrect also and it is not the Eagles.
The Zeppelin tune on 006 was NOT Whole Lotta Love.

I'll give a hint. These songs were taken (one each) from the theme discs that I post every week. (Cold, Come, Crazy, Crying, Dance, etc etc.) If you look at the titles you MAY be able to determine which disc the two that you missed were off of, and that will then give you a list of 25 or so possibilities to choose from...


Did the hints for 006 help at all or not really?

Lots of possibilities with these puzzles, this one is all over the place like the others, but I sort of like the idea of a themed puzzle, perhaps an all 60's, all 70's, all 80's, or maybe a TV Theme one, or a Disco one, or a Potty Mouth one where I take cuss words out of various songs and paste them together (lol, I won't do that). Perhaps an all female artist one......or one where I try to make a message out of song words, like "Be sure to drink your Ovaltine". The sky's the limit.

These puzzles are over my head.
1-1.5 seconds is not enough for me.
You audio wizards are wizards to create them and to solve them.
