    Actually, the name of the album is "12x5".  I'm not quite sure if
it was their second album, but it contains, for example, the tracks
"Empty Heart", "Under The Boardwalk", "Congradulations", etc.
    By the way, at home I have an old Stones' EP that I picked up
somewhere that is entitled "5x5".  I think this is probably what
Ron was referring to.
    As for the derivation of the title, I think it means "12 songs
by 5 people"; i.e. there are 12 tracks on the album, performed by
the five members of the band.  Similarly, "5x5" contains five tracks
by the same.
