    What is sciophobia?

    As far as I know scio/scia is Greek for shade or shadows so possibly the fear of shade/shadows?
    I'm probably way off.

    That is the advantage of a classical education. The old Greek comes in handy.

    Correct.

    A classical education comes in handy indeed when you have to answer Srameen's questions... ;)

    Fleetwood Mac had Bare Trees so I'll have at stab at them assuming a typo in the question and that it's two records and not just one call "bare tree and penguin", in which case I haven't a clue.

    Long winded way of saying..was it Fleetwood Mac?

    It's not like you at all to be shneaky, Srameen...

    Was it one of those Live Aid groups? I thought the first one was in the 80s, but maybe that's one more thing about which I'm wrong.

    Good thinking but not just the right lines yet.

    I'm pretty sure I know this and afaik you can include the 00s and possibly the 10s in it too.

    Edit: actually the 10s one I'm thinking of was probably a comic relief thing rather than a release.
