Quiz time

[Bleedin Thumb]

Two things:

1. The unqualified approbation of all here
2. The opportunity to dazzle us once more with your erudition by posing the next question.

(Assuming you're right, of course. If you're not then.... )

Well your mostly right.. yes Leonard Cohen, Beautiful Losers but his mates name was F.

But you might as well take the unqualified approbation as its going cheap today. As far as dazzling us with some of your eruditeness, just remember that this is a family show and the Mod's are watching you!

Make it challenging!

[Shedhand]

Making a quiz challenging these days is very difficult because all the dumbheads know how to google so us geniuses can't show off anymore.

hmmm.still thinking of one.

[Cliff Rogers]

...hmmm.still thinking of one.

I thought of a really good one but it has been so long since I had a win that I forgot the question.

[Shedhand]

Ok here it is:

Whose voice was once described by a reviewer as sounding like a duck fart in a bottle on an album sleeve note and what was the artists first album.

[dadpad]

I have no idea but I'm gonna guess Bob Dylan.

Aka robert zimmerman

his debut album was entitled Bob Dylan.

2. The opportunity to dazzle us once more with your erudition by posing the next question.

(Assuming you're right, of course. If you're not then.... )

I'll keep out of the way, I don't want to be erudited on

[Bleedin Thumb]

I wouldn't have a clue, but that wont stop me guessing.
Leo Sawyer voice has that squeaky quality that may have come from a ducks behind.
First album = I feel like dancing ? or something equally banal.

Somehow you don't fit the bill of a Leo Sawyer fan though Sheddie.

Edit 2nd guess The lead singer from YES Ian Anderson ? or was he from Jethro Tull?
Their first album just called YES or maybe Fragile, I only know of those or Tales from a topographic ocean and Relayer...doesn't matter they all sounded the same to me. Also - Close to the edge.....or was that Hawkwind...damn memory, might just google after all.

[Shedhand]

Nope, nope, nope and nope.

CLUE:
Known more for his prodigious acoustic guitar virtuosity than his duck fart vocals. One of the few artists who can make a 12 string sound acceptable.

[Grunt]

I'd say Neil Young.

[watson]

Leo Kottke??

[Shedhand]

Leo Kottke??

half points. And first album?

[watson]

Oh Bugger!

I only got into Leo in the last fifteen years.....so due to other priorities I probably missed the first one!
Something with "Orange" in the title.

I refuse to Google it.....keeps the grey matter going.
Regards,
Noel

[Bleedin Thumb]

Hey I got the Leo right do I get quarter points?

Was the album self titled.. black and white cover?

Can't recall him ever singing, might be a blessing

[Carry Pine]

The only Leo Kotke album I ever had was stolen. Only heard it twice. "Chewin' Pine".

....and Bleedin' Thumb... don't send any rude text messages to the contact listed as 'GWB' on that red phone. Could lead to breaking down of doors and stint in orange clothes.

Carry Pine

[Shedhand]

His first release was ....."six & twelve string guitar" followed by "Circle Round the Sun" (and if you have a copy of that one laying around you are sitting on a mint).

Give it Watto...
