Going Dutch

That was what I'd have guessed - although I probably knew it in 1979!

Another guess is that Danny Mirror, Pussycat and Starsound are all Dutch ... or Belgian .... no, i'm going with Dutch.

According to wikipedia, all are Dutch. Actual miles may vary.

Aye, but you didn't say which one you were answering!

You'll be telling us next Rob Halford isn't Tim Brooke-Taylor's step-brother!!

Question one...

I reckon they were all banned from entering the UK.

Patrick Crowther | 24 June 2009 - 9:12pm

Black Sabbath question...

was it Don Arden?

Or failing that, Don Airey? He played on everything else...

0
Patrick Crowther | 24 June 2009 - 9:17pm

It was Rick Wakeman wasn't it?

0
stimpy | 24 June 2009 - 9:33pm

Probably...

I don't know the answer to this. I think the caped keyboardster did play with the 'Heaven and Hell' hitmakers, didn't he?

0
Patrick Crowther | 24 June 2009 - 9:35pm

Seems like he played on every other session

in those days. He tells the story of playing 5 or 6 sessions a day - turn up, sight-read the music, nail it first time, out and onto the next session.

stimpy | 24 June 2009 - 9:41pm

No wonder he had...

a bloody heart attack.

Patrick Crowther | 24 June 2009 - 9:42pm

No

that was the onstage beers and curry. Or being married to a Page 3 "stunna".

Complete non-google guesses

1. They all got to Number 2 in the charts because the No 1 was occupied by a recently-deceased singer?

Last one - I will go for Paul Nicholas.

Football?

The most fascinating fact about Dimitri Shostakovich was that he was a fully qualified referee. He also composed a ballet, The Golden Age, about a Russian football team's away trip to the west.

I'm pretty sure Pablo Neruda wrote some poems about football.

As for Snoop Dogg - he's not a Macclesfield Town season ticket holder by any chance?

I'll only claim one point

as the Rick Wakeman answer to (6) was an educated guess.

*Sigh*

I miss Heppo's almost impossible photo quizzes. Has he fallen out with us?

0
Beany | 25 June 2009 - 8:21am

Wasn't it due to a plug in

Something on Firefox that was able to give you all the info about the photo i believe.

Sour Crout | 25 June 2009 - 1:11pm
