Welcome to the first Saturday Snapshots of 2024 - Happy New Year!
Although, it's not too happy, is it? Only a few days in and already we've had to say goodbye to Hutch. A full David Soul tribute will follow on Monday.
Meanwhile... have yourself a bumper edition of Snapshots with 15 different artists to identify... how might their songs be connected?
15. Lost your job? These guys can help you out financially.
14. $6,000,000 Steve goes to Skywalker Ranch.
13. A good thing, used by one of the gentlemen mentioned above.
12. Good at advising you how to put one foot in front of the other.
11. What's on the other side?
10. Carolyne hurt by a muddle.
9. A friend of Allan Clarke.
8. Open All Hours.
7. Ghosts, demons, black magic...
6. Could be Green, Poison or Broken.
5. Tyne Henchmen Abound.
4. Winnie's glue gun.
3. The capital of Manchester.
2. Just the job for me!
1. A soggy mass.
Answers tomorrow morning, if you can't get them all today.
12. Run DMC?
ReplyDelete8. The Arrows
ReplyDeleteJM
3. M
ReplyDelete8. Corner Shop
ReplyDeleteIs it types of music?
ReplyDeletePop Music, Rock and Roll?
JM
Well done, John.
DeleteQuick work today John
DeleteThanks. And thank you Alyson and M! I could have stared at that picture till the end of time and not had the slightest notion who it was.
DeleteJM
Yes, M was the giveaway to the link this week.
DeletePlus one of the easiest clues - I would never have recognised him either.
DeleteI think JM may be right
ReplyDelete1. Pulp
9. Buddy Holly
10. Arthur Conley
I don't think Buddy Holly would have been as successful had he not worn his signature glasses, despite the music. They made him stand out from the crowd (same as for Hank Marvin).
Delete2. English Teacher (or Master Blogger, either fits)
ReplyDelete4. Pooh Sticks?
11. Alternative TV?
All present and correct.
DeleteWell done John and good work from Alyson and Ernie.
ReplyDeleteI'm suffering from brain fog this morning!
Finally got one!
ReplyDelete14 Austin Lucas
Argh, overslept this morning. Congrats to John and the team!
ReplyDeleteI like to think I’d have got the Pooh Sticks clue anyway, had it not been included in the picture :)
ReplyDeletePedant.
DeleteTo be honest, I need to wear my glasses more when compiling this quiz.
DeleteI didn't spot that either - just thought they were wearing colourful shoes.
DeleteCame back for another go. Think 13 is Positive Force, giving up on the other three
ReplyDeleteYes.
ReplyDelete15 are pretty obscure, though the clue is very straightforward.
7 should be familiar to certain members of our Scottish contingent.
5 should be familiar to everyone. If Khayem were here, he'd get that one.
5 is Echo and the Bunnymen, isn't it? - anagram - and of course Ian McCulloch's hair!
ReplyDelete7 is The Supernaturals, right?
ReplyDeleteAnd since 15 isn't UB40, which might fit the clue, was there a band called Dole? Or The Dole?
ReplyDeleteYes. And yes. And yes. Which makes for a clean sweep.
ReplyDeleteWell done, all.
Nice sweeping up there Martin
