Ok, I had a little help. ;)

Riding in like the 7th Cavalry....

Lyrics 18 - Barrett's Privateers, by the late, great Stan Rogers.

L8 - Andy Williams did it, but I can't remember if he was first. Probably not, since most of what he sang were covers.

L19 - Merrilee Rush ( but Juice Newton was better)

T16 - a) Sherbrooke (why, in God's name?); b) God damn them all

See ya!

JC

Dammit - the little bugger did that while I was typing - FROM MEMORY!

okay, guessing at a couple more.

Lyrics 1

I think its Cold Chisel, no idea of a song title.

Trivia 6,

Does beer go with a painted lady? Elton seems to think so, but i might have the wrong song.

Cheers

13 Hondells (Or something like that)?

24 Smokey Robinson

Incidentally out of curiosity I tried to Google for the 'Woodstock' question (I wouldn't have posted if I did find the answers) and came across this account which was very interesting reading for an ageing hippy like me:

Woodstock (http://www.woodstock69.com/wsrprnt1.htm)

Updated revised scores:

Duckbutt 21
Cooda 19
Rusty 9
bentbanana 7

Jerry Coe, can't find Andy Williams for L8 and I ain't giving ya Moms Mabley.
Richo, EJ might think beer goes with a painted lady but Ian Thomas doesn't. :E

Sadly reduced to picking up the crumbs. :{

Lyrics 20 Song was One Tin Soldier from Billy Jack. Maureen McGovern??

Lyrics 25. Misty Blue, Dorothy Moore (was that a hit anywhere but Oz?)

Re the Woodstock cancellations. I'm taking a stab at Joni Mitchell because I know she was booked to play there and didn't, but I can't remember why. Think it had to do with transport logistics or something like that.

By the way, Duckbutt, as a fellow ageing hippy, I recommend you get hold of a book called (I think) The Summer of our Lives, by Jack Curry, which was a book about the putting together of Woodstock and the memories of some people who were there, including some artists. I never wanted it to end, but haven\'t been able to track it down anywhere for a while. Great stuff.

Also in this thread (http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=81805&highlight=woodstock) you\'ll see a reference to a DVD that\'s well worth watching on the same subject.

Pigboat:
and I ain't giving ya Moms Mabley

Huh??? Am I missing something (other than a brain, of course)?

JC :confused:

She did a cover of AM&J. :ooh:

Scores updated.
A few hints:

L8...No Belmonts involved with this one.
L11..Did someone mention Slowhand awhile back?

T3...Last Beach Boys hit?
T6...A nice Merlot, perhaps?

Binos, I can't find why Joni Mitchell wasn't at Woodstock either. I believe she was scheduled, and she actually wrote a song about it. L20 was a true one hit wonder. They had a #1 hit with One Tin Soldier and then dropped out of sight forever.

T6...A nice Merlot, perhaps?
Red Red Wine, perhaps? Or was that just rotten guess, perhaps?


Lyrics 20 - Coven

T2 - Deep beneath a stone, on the mountain

Maybe I used a little help on these two, perhaps?

Hey, I'm just trying to help close this one down!


Regards (perhaps)

JC

Piggy, At some stage over the next couple of days I shall revisit my prized DVD on JM and PM you the reason she didn't make it to Woodstock.

Hazatude, a warm welcome to the world of the Music Quiz. You will notice that the number of views is fairly low, mainly because it is populated by a close-knit community who have decided that they will do the best they can without use of any, err, outside influences.

I hope I speak on behalf of those who do the real hard work here, Pigboat and Scran in welcoming you to the club and suggesting that rather like golf, the quiz is a competition against yourself.

:ok:

I kinda figured that Google wasn't allowed so I used it only for Original Caste. I can listen to the song otherwise can I not?

Hazatude,

Well, as Bino's points out.....we can't really tell if you Google or not.....(although I sometimes use really obsure songs that I have Googled to see if I can catch anyone out).....so the "honour" system prevails.


By all means listen to the songs...thats how I come up with a lot of my Quiz's..................


Piggy - I have the "ball" for the next two Quiz's, so thats:

504 on Sun 6th/Mon 7th (while we watch the Super Bowl - C'mon Chiefs...:confused: what? they didn't make it? C'mon Patriots...:ok: )

505 on Sun 13/Mon 14

if you can do 506 on 20/21

I'll do 506 on 27/28 - deal? :ok: :ok: :ok:

Well I would be honoured to play with you if you'd have me.

Th-th-that's all folks.
The ol' gunslinger himself will be back next week.

Final scores

Scran, ok for the dates you have there. The 20/21 may be a little late. We have our major curling tournament and piss-up of the season that weekend and I'm on the executive committee.

Hazatude, never under any circumstances, incur the wrath of scran. It is the stuff of legend. Few have survived. :ooh: :E :D
