edna Posted March 20, 2010 Report Posted March 20, 2010 The lady is Maureen Tucker, drummer foor V.U. I was giving hints... I said "the others were members of the band... what band? Lou Reed' s band, the one he had in the sixties... with another famous performer who has a name similar to John Cage but is NOT John Cage...(Farin said: John Cale) related to Andy Warhol... beautiful German lady singing some of the songs...(Farin said Nico) etc..." and then I mentioned the "lady drummer..."

(Doug Yule) I always thought the Velvet Underground were Lou Reed,John Cale,Sterling Morrison and Maureen Tucker...I learned something today
edna Posted March 21, 2010 Report Posted March 21, 2010 Nico sung on many of the VU songs so I -and most of their fans- consider her as a full member of the band. Though they say "V.U. and Nico" (like the name of the album). There was people coming and going... Angus MacLise, Walter Powers or Willie Alexander were members of the band at some point too...
edna Posted March 22, 2010 Report Posted March 22, 2010 OK, so who is this guy? Hint: he played drums for an important band.
Brad_M Posted March 22, 2010 Report Posted March 22, 2010 Barry Whitwam from Herman's Hermits? Did the Beatles actually let him jam with them or have you been playing with Photoshop again?
RockyRaccoon Posted March 22, 2010 Report Posted March 22, 2010 Mr. Richard Starkey! The MAN, the MYTH, the LEGEND.
chutzpah Posted March 22, 2010 Report Posted March 22, 2010 you're right...Nico was part of the VU (on the banana album) One of my favorites...I just think that Lou Reed was an important part...and it shows later...Lou Reed still rocks...maybe a little slower...anyway, you were right...
RockyRaccoon Posted March 23, 2010 Report Posted March 23, 2010 You're right! It is my turn! Who's this guy? *Bonus Question: what's his real name?
skybluesky Posted March 23, 2010 Report Posted March 23, 2010 In response to the mentions of Nico a few posts above-she had a strong solo career, and was involved with Jackson Browne when he was young and just starting out. He wrote one of her most well known songs-"These Days." In response to Rocky's pic- Flower Pantsy McFringe Cuff?
skybluesky Posted March 23, 2010 Report Posted March 23, 2010 that's Long Hair Scream Face, duh seriously, I have no idea. Carry on.
edna Posted March 24, 2010 Report Posted March 24, 2010 The guy who plays guitar for Slade? he's british, right? Give me a hint, please...
RockyRaccoon Posted March 24, 2010 Report Posted March 24, 2010 Haha nope. Hint: He is/was the lead singer and guitarist for considerably one of the greatest blues-rock bands of all time. The band had 5 songs hit the Billboard Top 40.
RockyRaccoon Posted March 24, 2010 Report Posted March 24, 2010 Correct! The stage name of Mr. Dirk Thrust.
Shawna Posted March 25, 2010 Report Posted March 25, 2010 I remember the Partridge Family, and there was never an Andy.
MindCrime Posted March 25, 2010 Report Posted March 25, 2010 I was thinking 80's alternative, that's why I came up with my answer Okay I'll think again.f Richard Butler?
BlueAngel Posted March 25, 2010 Report Posted March 25, 2010 I meant alternative in the American underground sense not the British new wave/art punk sense.
