Each clue can be paired to an image to make a pair of two-word bands with the words swapped. For example the two bands PSYCHEDELIC FURS and BUFFALO SPRINGFIELD become "PSYCHEDELIC SPRINGFIELD" (the first image) and "BUFFALO FURS" ("The chosen garb of William Cody"). The clues and images match up as follows:
