ReplyDelete2 Joan Jett, not looking much like Joan Jett!
ReplyDeleteJoan Jett looking like Joan Jett would be too easy.
Delete10 Simon and Garfunkel?
ReplyDeleteYes. Good eyes, Alyson!
Delete1, Nick Lowe
ReplyDeleteBased on Joan and Nick is it Rock 'n Roll?
No.
Delete8. Huey Lewis?
ReplyDeleteIndeed.
DeleteIs the link festivals/fairs? Scarborough, Glastonbury
ReplyDeleteNo.
DeleteIs the link different kinds of rocks and stones?
ReplyDeleteNo.
DeleteCould it be I've stumped you all?
ReplyDeletePerhaps. I have been staring intently at the track-listing of Rodney Allen's only album and have some up with nothing apart from him and the Verve both having 'bittersweet' song titles.
DeleteCome up not some up
DeleteNot the connection. Although you got the right Verve song.
DeleteHow about titles with opposites in them? Rodney's also has 'Happysad', Nick has 'Cruel to be Kind' etc?
DeleteAnd 'Hip to be Square'?
DeleteNot helping Rol. I've been staring at all the discographies for over an hour now - think you've stumped me.
DeleteErnie has cracked it! We English teachers call them oxymorons.
ReplyDeleteWell done, Ernie.
Yes well done Ernie. As I said, this one stumped me.
DeleteMy strategy of focusing on the most obscure act on the list eventually paid off but even then I don't think I would have got it without Rol's helpful hint.
DeleteI'm not sure Rodney is the most obscure act this week. Don't think anyone got #3 yet!
DeleteOoh, that was a tricky one. Very well done Ernie (and Rol)
ReplyDeleteand hence Fat Boy Slim at the top, ah.
