Trivial Pursuit Baby Boomers says the second Rolling Stones album was
named a multiplication whose product was 60. What is that album?

I'm not quite sure if it was their second album, but it contains, for example, the tracks "Empty Heart", "Under The Boardwalk", "Congradulations", etc. By the way, at home I have an old Stones' EP that I picked up somewhere that is entitled "5x5". I think this is probably what Ron was referring to. As for the derivation of the title, I think it means "12 songs by 5 people"; i.e. there are 12 tracks on the album, performed by the five members of the band. Similarly, "5x5" contains five tracks by the same. -- Mark Vita Dartmouth College USENET: {decvax,cornell,linus,astrovax}!dartvax!markv ARPA: markv%dartmouth@csnet-relay CSNET: markv@dartmouth

The second Rolling Stones album was:
"The Rolling Stones No. 2"
Decca LK 4661 (January 1965) (1)
The second Rolling Stones album ISSUED IN THE U.S.
was probably "12x5", a catchy name based on the British
EP "Five by Five" (Decca DFE 8590).
I've noticed a similar provincial attitude in other TP
questions. Did the game show "Beat the Clock" start in the
US or the UK? I thought it was the UK, in which case the answer
to who was the first host is Bob Monkhouse, not the one given.

The TP question about the second Rolling Stones album being a multiplication whose product was 60 is correct. The album name is "12x5", standing for twelve songs done by 5 people in the band. Bob Schleicher ihuxk!rs55611
