NYT Strands today (game #117) - the answers
The answers to today's Strands, game #117, are…
- SALSA
- SOUL
- JAZZ
- BLUES
- ROCK
- DISCO
- FOLK
- COUNTRY
- SPANGRAM: MUSICGENRE
- My rating: Easy
- My score: Perfect
I was a little thrown today by the the combination of the theme clue – 'That's my jam' – and the first answer I found, SALSA. In my head, I thought this might be another food-related Strands game; salsa could be described as a type of jam, maybe? No, I was on totally the wrong path there, as became obvious as soon as I solved the next couple, SOUL and JAZZ, at which point this became rather easy.
I spotted MUSIC soon after, and a process of elimination led me to the spangram, MUSICGENRE, and once that was in place it was even more of a simple solve.
