Wake girls up screaming "This story - myself - blows!". I remember running...

1984 album, one word per track.

[Edit - sorry, got the date wrong!]

Haven't listened to that in ages. Should go dig it out.

Correct!

I really didn't think anyone was going to get that one...

Yes, you should.

All yours, Mr. B!

Dammit...I hate Google sometimes!

And there I was feeling all smug.

Ah well, let's try something mildly google-resistant...

Why are they connected to this?

Pete Seeger (Lindow Man, found in a peat bog)
Leadbelly (subtle use of the symbol for lead, there!)
Woody Guthrie

...all worked with...

Moses Asch.

Spot on. Over to you, Frank!

(I saw a show about Lindow Man where some wag archaeologist dubbed him 'Pete Marsh', so I'm not entirely to blame for the pun.)

Morning Barnadine! It's 1:30 AM here, so my next question's going up in about 12 hours (possibly longer if I have to make it Google-proof

).

What's going on here, then?

Bedtime bump...

They're band names. In retrospect, 2's not quite as clever as I thought it was, and 3's a bit obscure; but I'm still quite proud of 1.

3 is Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine

working on the others.

1 is Sly and the Family Stone.

For some reason I can't see 2; even when I copy/paste the imageshack address in a new tab, it just times out. I'll check again later.

Edit: I can see it now, though I have to really squint--and then close my eyes completely and bite my tongue while humming--to see the lads with moppish hairdos.

that's the one that's been troubling me most - a grainy b/w photo (looks early 1960s), 4 young lads dressed in black with moppish hairdos, standing in a doorway, a sign above reads, "The Cavern Club".

no luck so far
