OK, so now we are all getting settled in the new house, perhaps it is time for a QUIZ!
So, usual thing, 10 tracks, artist and song title please.
I am sure that Blimpy has valuable ‘Spill points for the lucky winner.
If not, there are virtual Crackerjack (CRACKERJACK!) pencils for everyone who gets one right.
Good Luck!
I was just about to try posting some music looks like it’ll be more difficult than I thought, but mostly I’m posting this because that’s the only way I can think of to sign me in.
Ooh I should know number 3, I’m sure I know it!
Well, as the man on the spot … can I have number nine, danke.
Toots and the Maytals – Reggae Got Soul.
Is 4 Leonard Cohen?
ha 8 is the Last Poets, the title is When The Revolution Comes.
Number one is a hot Toddy
Nazz – Open My Eyes
#5 is John Cale’s cover of Flanders & Swann’s “Gnu”.
…and (in a good week for “Nuggets”) #3 is The Standells’ “Dirty Water”, innit.
…and #4 is Kevin Ayers’ “Song From The Bottom Of A Well” a recent(ish) Sidecar B-lister. What shall we do, oh what shall we do, with all these virtual pencils?
Why did I foolishly think I’d be any better at quizzes in this house than I was in the old one. I’m rubbish, me …
Apart from the vague feeling that I really ought to know number one, I’m utterly stumped.
#2 is Nils Lofgren’s Back It Up.
Oh dear!
I had vague thoughts that I knew the artists on Nos 5 & 8, but as others have got there first and I was wrong on both, I admit I’m in a relegation battle with ToffeeBoy.
Pompey have more chance of climbing out of trouble than me though.
Sorry Carole!
Ooh! People are doing well here.
tatankayotanka has #1 and #9
lambretinha has #2
ShivSidecar has #3, #4 and #5
ejaydee has #8
So that leaves #6, #7 and #10
Sign me up for the useless team!
P.S. Liked the music a lot, though, despite not having a clue as to names and numbers
Crikey, I don’t know nuffink…
I don’t know 6 but it sounds like a post Lowell George Little Feat.
they;e all The Who can i go sleepybyes now?
OK, I’ll give it until Saturday evening and then I’ll post the answers.
5 is John Cale ‘Guts’, 8 is probably Gil Scott Heron. A few others I really think I should know…
Now can someone tell me how I can go back to being ‘Exodus’? I seem to have the same problem Bishbosh had – someone of that name already exists, yet I see Bish has managed to drop the ‘rr’ prefix.
Go to edit profile and you can change your on screen nickname. You are stuck with the account name though.
