Thanks!
What unlikely duo recorded the soundtrack for the Francis Ford Coppola dud, One From the Heart?

Hmm.
How did Lucille, BB King's famous guitar, earn her name?

I love this story...
He was playing some backwoods joint somewhere in his early days. The place was one of those kind with burning barrel in the middle of the dance floor to provide heat. During his set, two men got in a fight and knocked over the barrel, setting fire to the place. In his haste to leave the burning bar, he realized he forgot his guitar, so he went back in to get it. He later learned the two men were fighting over a girl named Lucille. He named his guitar after her, not to remind him of her, but to never do anything as stupid as run into a burning building again. Side story... I was visiting the "Hard Rock Cafe" in Toronto many years back and the first thing I saw upon entering the bar was one of the many guitars lucky enough to be named "Lucille". I turned to my wife and said "Well I've seen enough, lets go" We stayed of course, but just seeing her was a thrill. Anyway, back to trivia. Who did Axl Rose write "Sweet Child O' Mine" for? Bonus points if you can name her dad.

Sorry trivia heads, I've been buried at work and home.
Here goes: This guitar player started Humble Pie with the late Steve Marriot and went on to have a fairly successful solo career in the late mid to late 70's. His live album is considered one of the best live albums ever. (Man... am I showing my age? It seems like just yesterday!)

Well, here's an easy one...just 'cause I happen to be listening to these gentlemen tonight...
One R&B hit single of the 1970's, according to urban legend, featured a scream effect that was reported to be the scream of a woman being stabbed, like, right there in the studio. Gee, what a bunch of gullible kids will believe, eh? ![]() Anyways, name the group and the hit single.

'Nother easy one, then.
Who famously screamed 'I've got blisters on my fingers!' and what prompted the outburst?

Pink Floyd- "The Wall"
I'm positive about this, so I'll ask a new one and stay with some fairly easy Floyd trivia. Who is the only member that is on every album?

Yes Liberty made Billy Joel, because before Liberty came on ...(evil grin)... Billy was kind of floundering.
During Turnstiles, Billy met Liberty and asked him to play drums. Billy pretty much just had session players and no true band. Liberty said ok, but he was in a band and felt guilty leaving the guys. Who were "the guys"?

The band was Topper..... it featured "the guys" who later became Billy's band
Doug Stegmeyer on bass, Russell Javors on guitar, Richie Cannata on sax. I guess that was a misleading question, people thinking I meant a group maybe.... I'm sorry. Someone else go ahead..... give it a shot.

OK, let's get this thing going again!
In memory of Dan Fogelberg who just passed away: Name the album that he and Tim Weisberg recorded together. No googling please- This was a great album and someone out there should know it! R.I.P. Dan Fogelberg
