OLD 55 Posted August 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 Many Happy Returns Katie. I hope you had a great 21st. Tell your Uncle he has good taste but it's not Rufus walking the dog this time. No correct answer for Q1 yet either ! No one said Linda Ronstadt yet - she covers everyone's songs, but I love her - although it's not her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katie_sane Posted August 28, 2005 Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 Thankyou Darryl! Shall tell my uncle about Rufus. I love the Rolling Stones version of Walking The Dog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted August 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 Yes Edna, but she might not know who covered his songs ! Get her to mention a few of his Big Hits to you, and you might know someone who's covered one. (Although a few people have covered JM's song I'm thinking of). Goodnight All. Bedtime for me. :sleepy: :sleepy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katie_sane Posted August 28, 2005 Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 Q1. Dion? Glen Campbell? Last guess for tonight: Donny Osmond Night all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLD 55 Posted August 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 Sorry, not Dion Katie. Walking The Dog and Under The Boardwalk were a double sided Hit record for the Stones here in Australia in 1965, but NOT in the U.K. or the U.S. I don't think they were released as singles there. They're hard to get, because you don't see them on any "compilation" CDs. Night ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted August 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 Q1. Last guess for tonight: Donny Osmond AND WHAT A GREAT GUESS! CONGRATULATIONS KATIE The songs were: Paul Anka: "Puppy Love". Johnny Mathis: "The Twelfth Of Never". Steve Lawrence: "Go Away Little Girl".

edna Posted August 28, 2005 Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 Katie!!! Congrats!! I was about to post my last guess, a hit called "I need a crystal ball (To read Darryl´s mind)"... I forgot about Q2... Uncle, Brad or Bazzoka must know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katie_sane Posted August 28, 2005 Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 (edited) YAY! I got one! I didn't know which Steve Lawrence one but I thought I'd guess anyways. I actually tried to get Walking The Dog by the Stones and couldn't. It is weird how they put the albums together differently for different parts of the world. :sleepy: Edited August 28, 2005 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted August 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 I'll update the points tomorrow. Here's a replacement QUESTION 1 WHAT do these songs have in common? El Condor Pasa Space Oddity Ballad Of John And Yoko QUESTION 2. (CURRENT) QUESTION 2. This singer wrote and performed an R & B Classic in the 50s, later covered by one of my favorite bands over a decade later. Do you know him Goodnight All.

edna Posted August 28, 2005 Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 Walking The Dog and Under The Boardwalk were a double sided Hit record for the Stones here in Australia in 1965, but NOT in the U.K. or the U.S. I don't think they were released as singles there. They're hard to get, because you don't see them on any "compilation" CDs. Actually "Walking the dog" was released on their first British album, and "Under the boardwalk" is on "Rolling Stones, 21x5", also British version. It´s a real mess as they don´t have the same songs on the same albums depending where they were released... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted August 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 I was about to post my last guess, a hit called "I need a crystal ball (To read Darryl´s mind)"... ..."if you could read my mind love, what a tale my thoughts would tell" That's interesting about those 2 songs. Thanks edna. Maybe Australia was one of the very few places they were released as a double sided 45 rpm Single ! Wish I had it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Australia was one of the very few places they were released as a double sided 45 rpm Single ! Wish I had it. My single (bought in the mid or late sixties in Argentina) had "Paint it black" and "Under the boardwalk" So you see... And the album was more than "21x5", I believe it was "25x5"'?

Shawna Posted August 28, 2005 Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 Q1: they're all songs about wanting to be or being something or someone else. That's a little vague, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted August 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 Q1 the name of the titles dont appear in the song? THAT'S IT ! CONGRATULATIONS LAURIE My next clue was going to be "it's what's NOT in the songs" but you didn't need it. Q2 That's Screamin' Jay Hawkins I Put a Spell on You later covered by Creedence Clearwater Revival HE'S THE MAN ! CONGRATULATIONS BLUESBOY He was a wild man on stage apparently. I'd really like to see some footage of him.
