  1. 21 isn't the all time record. If I remember correctly, the record is 26. Also, the whole "7 dog years in one human year" idea isn't really very accurate, and isn't recommended by any experts on the subject. See here.
  2. Nope, don't think there were any misunderstandings involved there. More clues: - The British band's album was their debut album, released in 1971. In Britain the album was self-titled, but the American title was similar to the title of a track from Beatles For Sale. - The American band's album was released in 1970, and it was not their debut album. It was a double album with one live LP and one studio LP.
  3. Those were all the titles the band/artist intended the albums to have, so they do not fit the question. In the cases I am referring to, the albums were released with a title that the band didn't want, and they were both released under a different title due to misunderstandings. A few small clues for now: - The albums I am thinking of were released in consecutive years. - One of the albums was given the title the band wanted when released in England (the band's home country), but was released under a different title in the USA. - The other album is by an American band, and was released worldwide with a "title" that the band had not intended it to have. - Both were successful and prolific bands, and both released more than ten studio albums.
  4. That's right, the two bands/albums/misunderstandings are unrelated. There are some similarities, but in general they are completely unrelated.
  5. Too slow. These two bands had albums released under a different title to the intended title due to misunderstandings. I only know of two bands that fit this. If you can think of any others, please show me evidence.
  6. Who are the Sex Pistols? I believe it stands for Sex Pistols On Tour. I think they might have also used SPOTS, standing for Sex Pistols On Tour Secretly.
  7. And here's another one that isn't true. Looks like you stumbled upon a rather unreliable list, Laurie.
  8. Wow. I don't know what to say.
  9. Wow! I expect some football teams (both soccer and NFL) have had similar figures in the past, but I've certainly never heard as much as $88 million for injured players. On the other hand, Tiger Woods earned around $110 million last year despite being injured for most of the year.
  10. It's Andy Fairweather-Low. I cheated too. But this one is well over two days old now, so I though I might as well solve it.
  11. You've been talking about Belgium for this long without mentioning beer? Obviously your priorities are different than mine.
  12. Not necessarily a solo musician, but your answer is incorrect because: 1. Led Zeppelin had numbers after their album titles. The artist I am referring to didn't. 2. Led Zeppelin's fourth album was untitled.
  13. This artist's first four albums were all self-titled.
  14. What is Black Dog? I remember the band saw a black dog when they decided on the song name, but I'm not sure if it actually came into the studio.
  15. 1. Ball And Biscuit - The White Stripes (2003) 2. April - Deep Purple (1969) 3. Hope That House Built, The - Future of the Left (2009) (For a song released this year, this is surprisingly reminiscent of Peter Gabriel era Genesis). 4. Your Woman - White Town (1997) 5. Celluloid Heroes - The Kinks (1972) 6. (You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party!) - Beastie Boys (1986) 7. Cars - Gary Numan (1979) 8. Ampersand - Amanda Palmer (2008) 9. You And Me - Alice Cooper (1977) 10. Electric Avenue - Eddy Grant (1983)
  16. Happy New Year everyone! :happybanana: Wait, it's not New Year, it's Martin's Birthday! :happybanana:
  17. I'm surprised they didn't link to a video of Orianthi Panagaris, she's probably the most skilled female electric guitarist I've seen. And I'm not just saying that because she's Australian and good looking. See here. I also agree with someone who made a comment on that page - if it wasn't just electric guitarists listed, Ana Vidovic should make the top ten. Asturias is my favourite Spanish classical guitar instrumental (originally written for piano), and she plays it amazingly well in this video. I tried to learn Asturias about six years ago. Needless to say, I didn't have much success.
  18. 1. "Fake Plastic Trees" - Radiohead (1995) 2. "Voodoo Child (Slight Return) - Jimi Hendrix (1968) 3. "When the Levee Breaks" - Led Zeppelin (1971) 4. "Bittersweet Symphony" - The Verve (1997) 5. "Porcelain" - Moby (1999) 6. "Man on the Moon" - R.E.M. (1992) 7. "Live Forever" - Oasis (1994) 8. "Fool's Gold" - The Stone Roses (1989) 9. "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground" - The White Stripes (2001) 10. "Funeral For A Friend/Love Lies Bleeding" - Elton John (1973) Lots of songs I hadn't heard before this week only just missed out. Excellent list!
  19. I always save the images as "dontcheat" before uploading them to Imageshack. As for edna's guy - I don't know.
  20. Of course he's a British icon. But you still have to guess who he is. The picture is from the 70s, he looks rather different now. I don't think Ian Anderson has played electric guitar for about 40 years. It was the first instrument he learnt, but he quickly decided he would never be as good as Eric Clapton, so he gave it up and learnt the flute (and later the saxophone, mandolin, bouzouki, trumpet, violin etc etc) instead.
