David Bowie's self-titled "David Bowie" album was released in the United Kingdom in November of 1969. The album included Bowie's first Top 40 Billboard hit "Space Oddity" which peaked at number 15 in 1972. In the United States, however, it was released as "Man of Words/Man of Music" using the same portrait on the album cover but using a blue background instead of the green background from its initial release.

In 1972, the album was reissued as "Space Oddity" and is generally considered the first "proper album" released by Bowie.

Answer: Security

From 1977-82, Gabriel released four albums that were all self-titled "Peter Gabriel". The first three of these albums were referred to (but not renamed) "Car" (1977), "Scratch" (1978) and "Melt" (1980) based on their album cover photos. Gabriel's 1982 self-titled album, however, was issued in Canada and the United States with a sticker on the shrink wrap titled "Security" to help distinguish it from the other self-titled albums.

"Security" would include the release of the popular "Shock the Monkey" that landed at number 29 on the US Billboard Charts. Some fans also referred to the album as "Peter Gabriel 4" and a German version was released as "Deutsches Album" in September 1982.

Answer: The Second Album

The punk duo of Alan Vega and Martin Rev released their second studio album "Suicide: Alan Vega and Martin Rev" in May 1980. Unlike their first album, the self-titled "Suicide", Ze Records had hoped to tone down the blood and gore and focus more towards a dance style. "Suicide: Alan Vega and Martin Rev" saw very little success after its release.

The band openly stated that it did not represent who they were at the time. In January 2000, the album was re-issued, but given a different album title, "The Second Album", on compact disc.

The re-issue would include three bonus tracks "Super Subway Comedian", "Dream Baby Dream", and "Radiation".

Answer: Hell Bent for Leather

"Killing Machine" was the fifth studio release by Judas Priest and was released on October 9, 1978 in the United Kingdom. Due to the dark undertones of the album title and the fact that US branch of Columbia Records believed it had "murderous implications", it was released as "Hell bent For Leather" in the United States.

The album received a gold certification in the United States selling over 500 000 copies. It featured the singles "Before the Dawn", "Take On The World", "Evening Star", and "Rock Forever".

Answer: Sister Lovers

American rock band Big Star recorded their third studio album "Third" in 1974. Due to financial issues and a lack of general interest from interest their singer Alex Chilton, the album was not actually released until 1978. It was later re-released in 1985 under the title "Sister Lovers". Like their first two albums, it did not receive much commercial success and today is generally considered a "cult classic".

By the time it was released, the band had already broken up. Jason Ankeny of Allmusic stated that the album was "the slow, sinking sound of a band falling apart".

Answer: A Doll's House

"The Beatles" (known as "The White Album") was the ninth studio album released by The Beatles in November 1968 and one that caused quite a bit of tension among members of the band. Music critic and author Ian Macdonald noted in his book "Revolution in the Head: The Beatles' Records and the Sixties" that the working title for the album was "A Doll's House", but upon its release it was decided that it would be released with nothing but a white cover and no title. During its production there was quarreling among members of the band, the engineer recording the album, Geoff Emerick, quit, Ringo Starr briefly left the band, and their producer George Martin took a leave of absence.

It wasn't all bad for the band however, as many popular singles were released off of the album including "Back In The U.S.S.R.", "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da", and "Piggies".

Answer: Countdown to Armageddon

"Countdown to Armageddon" was the working title given to Public Enemy's 1988 "It Takes A Nation of Millions To Hold Us Back". In a 2015 New Musical Express article by Emily Barker, she noted that it was decided that original album title was too negative and therefore a title with "positive connotations" was used instead.

The popular song "Bring The Noise" was featured on the album and the album itself would peak at number one on the US Billboard Top Black Albums charts. The album would be certified platinum on August 22, 1989.

Answer: I Hate Myself and Want To Die

Emily Barker of New Musical Express in a 2015 article wrote that Nirvana's famous third and final full album "In Utero" was initially going to be called "I Hate Myself and I Want To Die", but the band thought twice about it after they feared they might get sued if a suicide were to occur as a result.

The album included the popular singles "Heart-Shaped Box" and "All Apologies". In October 1993, Nirvana went on an American tour to promote the album. In February 1994, they would also tour Europe for promotion purposes as well. Sadly, while touring in Rome, Cobain would overdose. Upon his return to the United States, he was found dead of an apparent suicide at his home in Seattle, Washington on April 8, 1994.

Answer: Subterranean Homesick Blues

In several European countries, particularly Germany, Dylan's fifth studio album was given the alternate title "Subterranean Homesick Blues", the title track from the album. The album has been labeled by many music critics as one of the greatest albums of all time.

It included both "Mr. Tambourine Man" (later popularized by The Byrds) as well as "Maggie's Farm" which would hit number 22 on the UK Singles charts. The album itself peaked at number one on the UK Albums Chart and at number six on the US Billboard 200.

In 2001, the album was certified platinum selling over one million copies.
