Tell ya what why not guess an album and then I will tell ya if you’re correct. Does that work for ya?

One more question...what's the middle right award and winner?

 

[avecigrec]

I love this thread.

Hamilton! Tony's!

Queen? News of the World? 4 Members, contains We Are the Champions.

But - not #9, and I can't figure out an Uncle Buck connection. So likely Fake News (of the World).

Alright here's my guess because I know it's a band you love....

Spoon - Hot Thoughts

9th album, 4 members (pretty sure), 2017 is one of the years missing a championship in the picture.

Getz again because this is incorrect.

There's probably a lot of Tony's around here but not sure any of them sing...

You are not the Champion

This is a very good guess. I love Spoon and all those clues line up well.

No, it’s not Spoon either.

It's clearly this:

 

[avecigrec]

Okay...





4 members
9th album (if including '89's Ciccone Youth release The Whitey Album)
"Winner's Blues" is the first song

...not sure about Uncle Buck though.

Look if we ignore a lot of the clues or find someone much smarter than me to make them work it's easy:
Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds Murder Ballads!
9th album
Features a fantastic 4 guests
And I'm sure someone has recut the Uncle Buck trailer to make it look like a horror movie where John Candy is a serial killer!!!

WHERE'S MY TROPHY?!?

 

[Turbo]

There are only a couple lists of 9th albums on Google. Thanks for nothing Google.

 

[Turbo]

Built To Spill's 9th album? Last year's "When The Wind Forgets Your Name"? Not sure how to make anything but 4 members, 9th album fit, so probably not.

 

[Turbo]

Just going to throw this one out there...

Rolling Stones "Sticky Fingers"
4 members, 9th album... definitely won awards and it's inducted into the Grammy Hall Of Fame.

Uncle Buck... he's a slob so he has sticky fingers? Or maybe it's a weird reference to Keith. I'm grasping at straws.

 

[Fleetwood-Matt]

Is there any significance to the years that seem to be in order with some missing? 2010, 2011, ? , 2013, 2014, ? , 2018, 2019, 2023

Are these the years the artist/band have released albums? And since we are looking for a 9th album that means it’s release date was last year?

I think you've got the right idea!
