Give us a clue

Barnadine · Post by **Barnadine** » Tue Jul 03, 2012 12:57 pm

I'm looking for the names of four musicians, all important figures in (broadly speaking) the same genre. First two clues are fairly literal, last two are more lateral/stupid.

Two bonus answers for someone with sharp eyes.

Heh, I was thinking of for №3.

Damn, that's probably better than the real answer.

In that case, I think I know the genre and the first two. I have someone in mind for the 3rd but not sure if I'm right. The 4th I'm stumped.

Yep, got both of those.

Just got to get number 4 now.

#4 predates all the others. He's better known for his compositions and influence on the genre than for his recorded output. (And the clue, for which I probably deserve a punch in the face, uses a fairly quaint euphemism which may not be common in your neck of the woods.)

So it's not “John-son” then.

No, I was hoping to include RJ but couldn't think of a tasteful way to show a 'Johnson'.

In order of birth: #4, #1, #3, #2.
(#2 was born about 10 years after #3, who was born about 10 years after #1, who was born about 20 years after #4.)

I'm not proud of clue #4, so if someone's got all the other answers, I think that'll do for the win.
