edna Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Would you believe I said Michael Stipe just cause it´s the first 80s band I thought of? I´m psychic!! I thought you meant "80s band" as in "had most or all of their success in the 80s" They started in 1979... and were really famous in the 80s. Yes, "Losing My religion" and other hits came in the 90s, then they were popular among all kind of people -I bet even my mother knows about REM...- but actually, REM is a very very much 80s band... I have to think of an answer... but I have to go. If any of you wants to post yours, feel free to do it. If you don´t, I´ll post mine tomorrow in the morning...

edna Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Good morning... He was known as Jackie Brenston by then and he recorded a song considered as the first rock and roll song, in 1951. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Ike Turner wrote the song Rocket 88. Jackie Brenston was a singer in his band and he got credited for the recording. but it was really Ike's song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 You´re right, Phil, and I was wrong... I always thought that Jackie Brenston was the singer of the band and Ike himself... So I´ve learned something and you´re up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Levis Posted May 31, 2008 Report Share Posted May 31, 2008 Well 'nice' is subjective The name of this band comes from the English translation of the opposite of what the lead singer's last name means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
