Music Trivia Quiz

M.R. Gold Member Username: My_rantz Australia Post Number: 1769 Registered: Nov-05	Posted on Sunday, December 09, 2007 - 22:28 GMT Just for a bit of fun, let's have a Music Trivia Quiz. Ask a question regarding anything (a line from a song, a quote, a title, who played what instument? Anything at all regarding musicians, songs or musical events etc. Try not to be too obscure. Please add the question number (or copy the question) so it can be quoted with the answers to save confusion. And please, please let's try to stay on topic here. I asked a question in another thread which remains unanswered, so I'll get the ball rolling with that one: Question #1 Who said, "All you need is a tent if you've got love?" And where was it said? .

Marc Silver Member Username: Wattsssup Barrie, ON Canada Post Number: 146 Registered: Aug-06	Posted on Monday, December 10, 2007 - 02:37 GMT Q#2 - My bad, thought BB was a left. I think Stevie Ray Vaughn was a lefty. I can think of a few things unique about Hendrix...

JAW Silver Member Username: Jaw Post Number: 158 Registered: Mar-06	Posted on Monday, December 10, 2007 - 03:05 GMT Yup, but I think it was a right-handed played left handed, pretty amazing, that's why the sound (e.g., the blues) was unique..that's probably what you meant. What "soul" groups did Hendrix play with?
