Oh, oh, Valentino did exist...
Brad_M Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 Old 55, The answer to question B is: Ballad Of Davy Crockett
Brad_M Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 Question A: Roger Daltrey's girlfriend was told "Don't Look Away" by Roger in The Who's song, 'Don't Look Away'. Was she fictional?
edna Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 Donovan, John Wetton and Toto... very good songs? Wetton was a member of Asia, also with King Crimson and a sessionman too... Toto was a band formed by experimented sessionmen who had played with many bands before... Donovan played with the Jeff Beck group in the late 60´s... has it got anything to do with the answer???
miamisammy29 Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 Question B: - "Rawhide" Question C: - Continents ("Atlantis", "Asia", "Africa")
miamisammy29 Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 And Question A is: "Don't look, Ethyl", from "The Streak" by Ray Stevens. Great question. AND SAMMY IS RIGHT BACK IN IT!! :happybanana: :happybanana: :happybanana: :happybanana: :happybanana: :happybanana: :happybanana: :happybanana: :happybanana:

I think you're correct with question A. I thought and searched and thought and searched again and that song never entered my mind. I'm going to stop with that one now and just in time, too. My brain was overloading. On another note: Question B is all mine Sammy, so "Eat My Dust", dude! :happybanana: :happybanana: :happybanana:

The Ray Stevens one just came to me..."But it was too late; she'd already been mooned". And I'd have to say I'm right with the continents one, too. And there's still two weeks left in the month. So, don't count your chickens just yet....Brad.

I only count one chicken, Sammy and he's getting on my nerves. I think I'll go choke him. But first, I'm going to go look at the sizzling girls thread.
Elvish Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 Could the answer to Question B be "Happy Trails" from the Roy Rogers show?
edna Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 Our two strong guys seem so sure of their answers that I´m absolutelly convinced that they are right!!! In any case, seems that sammy has got the answer to qC... Rock on, chicos!!!
OLD 55 Posted March 12, 2005 Author Report Posted March 12, 2005 I'm just heading out to Church and a meeting afterwards (hope it's short) but I just thought I'd congratulate sammy for A (Ethel)and C (Continents)and Brad for B (Davy Crockett). Post all the details later!
OLD 55 Posted March 13, 2005 Author Report Posted March 13, 2005 Quote Sammy: " Yeah, I figured you had Question B , but I put up an answer anyway. You never know...Good Thinking. You're the only one who participated in ALL 3 questions! :coolio:CONGRATULATIONS BRAD!!! "Ballad Of Davy Crockett" it is from the 1955 Walt Disney series starring Fess Parker, although his version only made #5. He also went on to star with Ed Ames (of the Ames Brothers)in "Daniel Boone". .......................................................... :coolio:CONGRATULATIONS X 2 SAMMY!!! A " The Ray Stevens one just came to me..."But it was too late; she'd already been mooned".It certainly was Ethel from his novelty #1 "The Streak". C And I'd have to say I'm right with the continents one, too. Yes, and 2 points also go to Edna for mentioning ASIA/John Wetton. Donovan's "Atlantis" is a fictional Continent (although some learned people believe it MAY really have existed), and of course that VERY underrated Band Toto's big Hit "Africa". "And there's still two weeks left in the month. So, don't count your chickens just yet....Brad." Ah Sammy! You went to Church!!! Today's sermon was on LAZARUS . (That'd be the second greatest comeback of all time, wouldn't it).

OLD 55 Posted March 13, 2005 Author Report Posted March 13, 2005 NEW QUESTION One about MY favorite Artist of the 1960s (not including Group members, so that narrows it down a little). He/she was a singer/songwriter and also produced some fine acts. He/she was primarily famous in the early 60s and then into the later 70s. He/she was very diverse in choice of material, combining self penned songs with covers of old R&B greats, Country, Soul, Rock, Motown, etc. songs. WHO is my favourite 60s Singer? :guitar:
