What else? There are many elses. He didn't do a song with Zeppelin that I know of. They did a tribute song for him on their 3rd album. I knew she covered a song of his but I didn't know they recorded together. That's what I was asking. I enjoy the particulars that go along with the answers. That's all.

No slight intended, I was just being glib

In fact, the Led Zepp's connection is a little deeper (though not much). Harper contributed sleeve photography to the album Physical Graffiti and appeared, uncredited, in the 1976 film, The Song Remains the Same. He also did a lot of work with Jimmy Page in the 80s, including an album called "Whatever Happened to Julia?" (which is not very good, sadly)

And, for the sake of completeness, the Pink Floyd connection is that Roy Harper sang on the "Wish You Were Here" album.

Thank you. For the moment I feel a completeness, a oneness with the trivial music universe.

Glad to be of service!

God of Thunder · 11-10-2004, 06:54 AM

It looks like Harry Cox had the last correct answer.

We need a question or it can be thrown to the masses.

gboz, I know you didnt mean it that way, but you gave every band in the entirety of this thread a slight by calling their music trivial. perhaps you should have said the music trivia universe.

gboz · 11-10-2004, 01:24 PM

Not only the bands on this thread but I accidently called the whole music universe trivial. Sorry about that. Thank you for the benefit of the doubt, Sion. Actually, music has been my whole life.

gboz · 11-10-2004, 01:25 PM

Next question, please.

Harry Cox · 11-10-2004, 04:52 PM

Sorry for the delay, here is my question:

What actor appears on the Lenny Kravitz re-make of "American Woman"?
(Hint: He is credited with providing the "uhhs" in the background. No cheating, please.)

balderdash111 · 11-10-2004, 06:14 PM

I'm gonna go with a blind guess and say Mike Meyers

Harry Cox · 11-11-2004, 02:56 PM

Mike Myers is incorrect.

Harry Cox · 11-12-2004, 05:58 AM

OK, I guess no one knows the answer. It is Stephen Dorff.

My new question is:
Who did Cliff Burton replace as bassist in Metallica?

jimk · 11-12-2004, 01:43 PM

jason newsted?

Harry Cox · 11-12-2004, 05:35 PM

jimk- No. Newstead replaced Burton. If you've seen the Behind The Music on VH-1, the original bassist appears on here. That is who I am looking for.

Harry Cox · 11-14-2004, 04:22 PM

I guess I had another stumper. The answer was: Ron McGovney.

New question: What band did Sammy Hagar originally front?

love that stuff.............am i right ?..........or was there another one?

Paradise Lost · 11-14-2004, 04:44 PM

Well, if you go way back, Sammy Hagar's first band was Skinny, then he joined up with Montrose for I think 3 albums...

Harry Cox · 11-14-2004, 05:53 PM

flyman- You are right. Your question?

Paradise Lost- Sammy was with Montrose for two albums, the self-titled debut and "Paper Money". What is Skinny? I am a pretty big Hagar fan and I've never heard of that band. Did they ever record an album? I've heard Sammy talk about his first band and he was referring to Montrose.

Fly · 11-15-2004, 07:20 AM

okay..........easy,chessy....

pink floyd's album "meddle"......has the tune "one of these days"

now this is pretty much an instrumental but,.......there is one spoken line in this song..........

tell me what is said.........word for word too......

"One of these days, I'm going to cut you into little pieces"

Who knew I was such a Floyd junkie?

I'll get back to you with a question in a couple of minutes (assuming that's right)

Fly · 11-15-2004, 08:01 AM

......

you got it man..........too easy eh.

balderdash111 · 11-15-2004, 11:01 AM

Here's the new question:

What guitarist recently confirmed rumors that he had played Joe Perry's part on a well-known 70s era Aerosmith song, and what was the song?

gboz · 11-15-2004, 01:58 PM

Here's a quote:
I’ve heard a lot about the Aerosmith experience too - you played on “Train Kept a Rollin,” right?

"I was living in New York and I got a call to come into the studio to play some guitar on Aerosmith. I went over and played on three or four tracks. Steve Hunter came over also. We both played on that song beecause Joe Perry…I don’t know why - I guess we were better guitar players at the time - Joe is really good. We were basically studio players for hire. That was their breakout album: Get Your Wings. We didn’t get credit on that album either. Later on, it got out."

From: http://web.archive.org/web/200306040...ssageboard.htm

I'll have another question in a few minutes.

Already been covered.

Oh well, I guess you're up gboz

gboz · 11-16-2004, 07:25 AM

Ok, who played the lead guitar part on the Beatles' "Ticket To Ride"?

Sion · 11-16-2004, 12:38 PM

wild guess: Paul McCartney

gboz · 11-16-2004, 12:45 PM

Right you are, Sion! Most people would look beyond the band, knowing George would be too obvious. Very good.

Sion · 11-16-2004, 08:37 PM

cool. I guess good.

ok, so its well known that Keith Moon coined the name "Lead Zeppelin", which was later ammended to "Led" so that we dumb Americans wouldnt pronounce it "leed". But, what band (ie. what musicians were thinking of forming a band) was it that for which he came up with the term? Hint: its wasnt Page, Plant, Jones and Bonham.

Well, first, while most people attribute the name to Keith, John Entwistle claims *he* coined the name. *shrugs* Most LZ afficionados prefer to let the Keith Moon story be the official story, and I'm of a mind to do the same. *winks* Four zillion Led Zeppelin fans couldn't be wrong, could they? heheh

Anyway.......

The four musicians were: Keith Moon, John Entwistle, Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck.

Bryndian_Dhai · 11-16-2004, 09:56 PM

And for the record.... that might have been one HELL of a band. *grins* My question's coming.... It's hard to think of one hard enough to challenge this group but not so obscure as to make it impossible to answer in 24 hours.

Bryndian_Dhai · 11-16-2004, 10:07 PM

Ok here goes.....

When touring, what do the Rolling Stones and Metallica have in common?

gboz · 11-18-2004, 06:10 AM

Adequate supply of Viagra? I dunno, may be a stumper.

I don't pretend to have the answer you are looking for, but this may be one of those questions that has too many correct, but unintended answers, a la Cliff Claven's "Name three people who have never been in my kitchen"

So here are some possibles:

Stadiums
Expensive tickets
T-shirt sales
Lots of trucks

Etc etc

kalashnikov · 11-18-2004, 09:53 AM

They both travel from city to city to play their music, and possibly covers of other people's music?

I thought about that before I posted it, but there IS something particular to both bands that they do when they are on tour.

Here's a hint, and if nobody gets it I'll post a new question.....

HINT: It is connected with something James Hetfield and Mick Jagger both have in common. And the answer I'm looking for is something that they insist upon when they are on tour.

gboz · 11-18-2004, 11:56 AM

Gym, work-out equipment?

orange juice, and LOTS of it?

Sort of on the right track, but not it....

And since I seem to have stumbled on yet another obscure question, lol, I'll show some mercy......

Metallica and the Rolling Stones both require all liquor sales at the arena stop while they are playing. As soon as they take the stage, the arena is required to stop selling alcohol.

I didn't believe it, either, but Metallica just played at the New Orleans Arena with Godsmack. Alcohol was served while Godsmack played, but as soon as Metallica came on, the bars and taps were shut down. A friend who works at the arena confirmed that they, and the Rolling Stones (who were just here, too) both require that in their contracts.

I'm passing the torch. I'm out of questions.

gboz · 11-19-2004, 05:57 AM

Does anyone know why they do that? I like it. It would keep people from missing a lot of the show waiting in line, keep them from driving drunk when they leave and might help them to remember the show the next day.
My band has opened for some lesser-known national acts at a fairly small venue in Mobile, Al. You play outside on this huge deck. Around the bar are a couple of big-screen TV's and one night Clarence Gatemouth Brown stopped the show after a couple of songs and informed everyone that if those TV's were not turned off they were packing up and moving on. He said you people better have come here to hear good music and not to watch TV. During their intermission the drummer told me they were playing somewhere with some big sports event on TV like the Superbowl or something and they wouldn't turn it off so they packed up and left.
