Music Trivia!

...and so from the ashes of yet another thread, Music Trivia is reborn!

Questions will vary in music types, most are "name the band". Look for song titles and other clues occasionally hidden in the wording of each question.

#356 Although not a musician by trade, this man is featured on one of the best selling albums of all time. He is better known for his film roles in movies like The House On Haunted Hill (1959) or maybe even Dr. Goldfoot and the Bikini Machine (1965). Who is he?

Vincent Price (on Thriller)?

Quincy Jones? And if so, you could have mentioned Fresh Prince of Bel-Air( he produced and guest starred a couple times)

Powerslave: Vincent Price is correct. The movies were the clue indicating him. Mr. Price's voice was also used to narrate a rendition of A Christmas Carol, so his voice is not always associated with the macabre!

#357 Shaggy's recent hit Angel borrows it's chorus melody from a one-hit wonder of the 1960's. Name the song and group who recorded the original angelic melody.

Concrete Blonde, Still in Hollywood?

**The_virus** · November 17th, 2005, 02:43 PM

Sorry, Concrete Blonde was from the 80's.

The original is from the 1960's and also has "angel" in its title.

Juice Newton - Angel of the Morning

Urban Junglist Supremist: I'll give you that one.

You got the right song (and melody), but that artist is still from the 80's. Juice Newton covered "Angel Of The Morning" which was originally by Merrilee Rush & The Turnabouts, recorded in 1967.

#358 This Jimi Hendrix album had a controversial cover that many stores sold covered in a paper bag. Jimi complained that the cover detracted from the music, but the label kept it because the attention helped sales. Name the album.

Electric Ladyland?

**The_virus** · November 29th, 2005, 07:14 PM

Jakey Wakey: Correct!

Electric Ladyland featured a photo of several nude women on the sleeve, causing all the attention.

#359 In 1995 this band was dealt a huge blow when their guitarist, Richey James, went missing right before the start of a US tour. To this day his fate is unknown. Name the band.
