Lenny Kravitz.

Correct, next time I'll have to go with 'easy' instead of 'easy EASY.' :P

Jdoe

"Justify My Love" was co-written by Madonna and Lenny Kravitz.

It's funny about the Billy Gibbons thing, because I have heard that Hendrix had heard of him when he was just a young blues player in Texas. As a matter of fact my snopes link above says that he mentioned Billy during an interview on the Dick Cavett Show.


Next question, also an easy one.

Speaking of Lenny Kravitz, who was his famous mom?

Man, that's a hard one, but here it is:

Roxie Roker

I remember seeing her on Amazon Women on the Moon. Unforgetable.

My Turn?

O.K.

Name the two members of Santana who left to form another famous San Francisco band

This question is covered already, in the first question asked when the thread started.

For those who don't know from the previous answer, Kravitz' mother was in the television series "The Jeffersons."

Jdoe

We need a different question, Mellvar. That was my original one that opened up this thread.

Arrrgghh!! sorry.

Well then, here's another:

Who was the original vocalist for AC/DC?

this seems to easy so maybe there is someone before i dont know of but im going with bon scott!

That is correct, now you get to ask a question.

Welcome to the thread.

this may be a bit easy,dont know!

what was johnny cash's first single ever released?
it was released on "sun records"!

I walk the line?

I believe it would be before that. He was at Sun Records at the same time as Elvis.

Remember the whole Sam Phillips discussion before?

I don't know the answer, but I don't think it was I Walk The Line.

it was NOT i walk the line!


keep trying though!

Hey SLIMM, it's good to see some new blood in here. I wouldn't know the answer to this one without looking it up and cheating, therefore- I pass.

im a music geek so im loving this!

when should i give the answer?
did everyone give up?

"Hey Porter"

The unofficial rules of this thread, by it's creator.

What an easy question... Now you'll have to Cry! Cry! Cry! while you figure out my hard and obscure question...

The 1984 Album "City Baby's Revenge" included a cover attributed to the Stooges. Upon listening to the track it is obvious that it is IN fact a homage to yet another group.

What group is it and what song by that group off of what album?

Bonus pts: What is the original song title of the Stooges cover?

Actually Hey Porter was the B side of Cry Cry Cry

Whoa!! Bon Scott was NOT the original vocalist. Yes, there was someone before Bon. God Of Thunder, Shall I give the answer?

OOH OOH LET ME....It was Dave Evans

Ok, my turn.

You know Axl Rose was part of the namesake of Guns 'N Roses.

Who was the other original namesake member of GNR & what band did he go on to form?

Gee that would be Tracii Guns and the band was LA Guns

von http://www.laguns.net/

Well, got one up on me. Points for you.

I didn't know about any singers beofre Bon.

Good Job.

Since I screwed up, I'll let the current question stand.

BIG HINT

The band was GBH and they were tecnnically doing a cover of a cover...

ahhhhh!!!! I haven't heard that damn album since high school!!! :D

but yeah Astrocloud that's I Feel Alright, from GBH, and the original is 1970 I Feel Alright from the Stooges (fun house). unless you're talkin bout the Damned (Damned Damned Damned) who covered them too (ok i had to google that one, to remember the album title..do i still get points???:D) i think the stooges were way ahead of their time, and the MC5 too!!

man it's wacked out that i actually got all those records


Here's my question: Which legend of reggae music made a tune, which I thought of right away (but is not in any way related, go figure...) also called "I Feel Alright"??

In my opinion the Motor City Five were furthur ahead of their time then almost any band has ever been. I have a hard time even thinking of any close to them.

Jdoe

I'll ignore the fact that I answered the "Justify My Love" question correctly but never got to ask a question of my own. You all owe me one.

ok,im no reggae fan but i will make a guess!
lets start with the obvious

bob marley?

Nope...within in the realm of reggae music this artist is arguably just as huge as Bob but is popularly not as widely known.
Maybe that song is too obscure to be recognizable so I've got a punk question for you all tonight if no one gets it.

OK so Toots and the Maytals did a track called I Feel Alright, I was hoping someone who listens to a lot of reggae like me would pick that up, but I knew that was probably pretty obscure tho. Great tune, tho in any case!!


Here's a better question:

what's the name of Henry Rollins' first band?
punk/hardcore on a famous DC record label. Name the label if you can, at least, but I'll be real impressed if anyone knows the band....

wasnt it something like hot animal or something along those lines?

i'll take a stab with Black Flag and i don't know the label.

correct?

nope...good guess tho, Henry Rollins was most famous for Black Flag or Rollins Band, but that's why i'm trying to stump people!!

This was his first band, before Black Flag, on the same label and about the same time as Minor Threat.
The record label's based in Washington DC and is well known in punk rock...it was founded by Ian McKaye of Minor Threat and Fugazi.

S.O.A. on Dischord?

i got something of his called,"hot animal" but i think thats spoken word though! i cant remember cause its been so damn long!

Hell yea!!! Sion you got it, it was State of Alert on Dischord records.


For all of you into really into punk and hardcore, you should pick up Dischord 1981: The Year in 7"s, it's a great compilation

That's probably Hot Animal Machine



Got a trivia question for us Sion??

To stick with the rules of this forum and keep this thing moving along, I'll restate that a new question needs to be asked within 12 hours of correctly answering it.
With that said, I think it's only fair to have Fearless_Hyena ask a new question. And please folks, make sure you read at least a few of the previous reply's so that we don't get more than one question at a time!
Thanks-
Perripken (thread originator)

Ah OK, i thought it was Sion's turn coz the answer to my last question (S.O.A., or State of Alert on Dischord) was correct.
In any case, I'm new to the thread so I 'm trying to play by the rules, and I hope my stuff's not too obscure...



New Question:

Which band's amps "go to 11"? (This is an absurd joke referring to the volume knob on a guitar amp) :D

"Hellloooo Cleveland!!!!"

Spinal Tap



To keep with the theme:

The small stonehenge joke in the movie was a parody of what band's failed stage act?
