    This is moving slowly, so here are some clues:

    - Of the remaining four albums, two are by UK acts, one by a U.S. act, and one Australian.
    - All albums are from the 1970s or 1980s.
    - Although it's notoriously difficult for the problem poser to predict what's easily solvable and what is difficult, I suggest concentrating on the following:

    C2
    B3
    C3
    A4
    D4
    D5

    B3 and D4 in particular are practically literal depictions of the titles. The same could be said of A1 and D1, but for those you would have to actually identify where they are.

    For A4, read what's written on the placards.

    Album is correct, first three songs are correct, not the last two.

    Please remember to give others a chance. Initially identify just two, then one at a time, waiting a few minutes between turns.

    I admit E4 would have fit the Tree song, but that pic is a song off another album. What exactly is the child on the left doing? Coincidentally, this image would also have worked for a song off this act's previous album.

    Cat Stevens - Catch Bull at Four ?
    B3 Ruins
    E2 18th Avenue
    B5 Sitting
    The moon and the star should be on the boy's head, so not D4?

    But all these could be something completely different, obviously.

    B3, B5 and D4 are correct. E2 is wrong.

    Re D4: The song title does not actually mention the head, just "Boy With the Moon and Stars", so it fits. Now someone needs to identify the other two songs.

    I did, actually. I put the first two up, then scanned the track listing again and found the student demonstration picture and posted that song title about 5 minutes later. It's just that I edited the original post instead of posting a new one for each song. Same for the next two. I wasn't that fast after the first two, tbh. It took me awhile. And I still wasn't sure. It just looks like I did it all at once.

    Fair enough.

    It's probably time I did an update, which I will do in the next hour.

    Right song, wrong tile! The angels in C4 refer to a different song from a different album.

    Correct. I somehow missed seeing and acknowledging this post.

    Update:

    [​IMG]

    Songs that have been identified have the album cover overlaid.

    Still looking for one more song from Surf's Up, two from Catch Bull At Four, and three from Diesel and Dust.

    One more album remains to be identified.

    You already know one of the outstanding songs from CB@4, so it's just a mater of matching it to a tile - though I should say the spelling of the thing in the tile is slightly different from the spelling of the album track.

    More clues:

    - We have established that B1 is a sunset, but the word I want is not "sunset" but something that means much the same.
    - What is E1 warning you not to do?
    - What is happening in E2?
    - C3: the title literally describes what's in the picture.
    - E3 is a map of what?
    - C4: it's been established what the apparitions are, or rather what they appear to be.
    - E4: What is the girl on the left doing?
    - E5: Why are the people queueing?

    C3: someone named Sophie Nixdorf ‎has a song called "Snow On Mount Fuji", but hardly well known. Do I have the right mountain at least?

    Then C3 could be "White Mountain".
