  1. edna, yours is Elephant's Memory:bow: :bow: :bow:

    Maxwell Smart? no, I don't think so but I loved that show :laughing:. I just love beer - that's why I chose the picture.

    here goes an easy one:

    1. formed in California in early seventies.

    2. lead singer took on a variety of bizarre personas.

    3. finally acheived chart success with a video hit in 1983.

  2. 1. One member had a musical instrument named after him.

    2. Three years passed between their first and second hit songs.

    3. One of their songs immortalized a hippie-era "guru."

    OK this one is hard....here's a hint:

    The instrument in clue #1 is really a modified mellotron, which has been used extensively by this band (who are in their 40th year as a group).

  3. In case I´m right, here goes my guess:

    1) Three musicians band, England, first 70s.

    2) Something in common with the Who.

    3) Leader formed another band in 1983.

    If I was wrong let´s the winner take it all...sorry, winner post another one. :drummer: :drummer:

    tough one, Edna...I was thinking SMALL FACES but the timing isn't right.

  4. The Bridge on the River Kwai!!!

    It's considered by many one of the greatest films of all time.

    Apocolypse Now! has one of the best sountracks of any war movie with:

    The End - Doors

    Satisfaction - Rolling Stones

    Suzy Q - (a cover version)

    Wagner blasting from the helicpters...

    I like Kelley's Heroes too and I use to love that song from it: "Burning Bridges" by The Mike Curb Congregation, I think.

  5. My alltime "rock" XMAS song is "I Believe in Father Christmas" by Emerson, Lake, and Palmer. Some others worth checking out:

    Christmas Eve in Srajevo - Transiberian Orchestra

    The Jethro Tull Christams Album came out last year and is very good.

    Anything on the Alligator Records Christmas Collection, especially Koko Taylor's "Merry Merry Christmas" - for some bluesy Christmas tunes.
