bazooka Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 A couple of words common to these: [*] the subtitle to one of The Rolling Stones greatest hits albums [*] a 9 minute 45 second track from a less famous guitar-heavy 70s Southern Rock Band. [*] a hit song for Tom Jones, also performed by Johnny Cash, Elvis and dozens of Country & Pop artists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazooka Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 Nope. It's two words (alliterative). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 Green Grass? Fits 1 and 3 - I don't know the other band. Gary Lewis & The Playboys had a Top Ten Hit with a song of that name in 1966, but they're not Southern or Rock or 70s. ..........................................................

_Laurie_ Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 oh that would be the outlaws, green grass and high tides, good tune!....i saw them in concert in the 70's.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazooka Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 Yes, Laurie and Old 55. The Rolling Stones: Big Hits (High Tide and Green Grass), their first greatest hits collection. The Outlaws: Green Grass and High Tides. I said this group out of Tampa, Florida was "less famous", but this signature tune sometimes plays on classic rock stations. Tom Jones: The Green, Green Grass Of Home. He reportedly chose this song after hearing the Jerry Lee Lewis straight Country version. I'll let you two work out the rights to the next post.

_Laurie_ Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 go ahead Old 55....since you got it first! good job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 Please Laurie - you go ahead! I didn't know the Outlaws. "High Tide And Green Grass" was the first Stones Album I ever had (still have it)and I didn't know "Green Green Grass Of Home" was a country song Bazooka, that's interesting. Jerry Lee Lewis is really versatile. I picked up a 3 CD box set of his recently which has other ballads I haven't heard him sing before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miamisammy29 Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 The Outlaws' song is AWESOME....very Freebird-esqe. You should definitely have a listen, 55. I also recommend "Hurry Sundown" and "There Goes Another Love Song"...great tunes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Laurie_ Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Hey Old 55, you must listen to green grass and hightides by the outlaws, you'll love it. I saw them three times in the 70's, they put on a great show....great guitar too! ok i guess i'll do one, mine are always too easy it seems, oh well here it goes the titles of these three artist's songs all have one common theme. carpenters...not one of their popular songs earth wind and fire...from a 1975 album cat stevens....1971 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Laurie_ Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 here's a couple more, just in case those weren't very good examples. sorry, i'm not very good at this :: elton john....1972 a really great album by pink floyd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazooka Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 I have the feeling I'm missing something. Here's a weak attempt. The Carpenters - The End Of The World Cat Stevens - Wild World Earth, Wind & Fire - That's The Way Of The World Earth, Wind & Fire had lots of 'celestial' songs (Shining Star, Sunshine, Sun Godess, New World Symphony), and the Carpenters have others (Top Of The World and Superstar, but those were popular) and Cat Stevens did Moon Shadow. Can't connect Elton John, except by Rocket Man -- and Pink Floyd with Dark Side Of The Moon. That's all pretty shaky. Am I even in the neighborhood?

_Laurie_ Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 yep bazooka you got it with the "celestial" theme...good job the carpenters song i was thinking of was "calling all occupants of interplanetary craft".... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
