No I shoulda got em, I just stopped one clue short each time.

Like I knew the Gorge Michael but missed James Brown.

I knew Giraldi's connection to the cross clue obviously but didn;t make the connection

On the purple one, I got three right away, but for the wrong reason.
Well played. Good to see the puzzle is solvable without endless ammunition.

I saw Al Green, James Brown, and Lou Reed, and took a wild guess that there was a male vocalist named Sheffield that I just hadn't heard of.

Today's puzzle is kicking my butt. I got the blue group.

Europeans isn't one of my categories, no.

The category with three of our four Europeans is probably the one Lunchie didn't like. It's public record that these figures all belong to this category, but you have to be pretty familiar with all four of them to know it.

Hint: A couple of the categories fall under a broader theme of "Reflection."
