Vocal Quiz ========== From: "Steve Mc" Newsgroups: rec.music.rock-pop-r+b.1950s Subject: Vocal Clips Quiz Results Message-ID: Date: Sun, 18 Jan 2004 14:15:50 GMT Thanks to the usuals for playing. We had one notable missing (Bill! Where are ya ?), and one new anonymous addition, shamed into playing (his words) by Norm's post. Out of a possible 72 points, Norm landed on top 68, missing only #05 and #26. Norm = 68 Rick = 62 Cathy = 56 Mark = 42 Mr. X = 37 Marc = 36 Norm's 68 (94.4%) eclipsed his previous record of 89.5%. I didn't count #16, because it really wasn't a vocal clip. I just threw it in mainly for my amusement, and hopefully yours, but it was identified by Mark as Ed Sullivan trying to introduce Bo Diddley (I think thanks go to Roger for posting this clip some time back). And damn!, I even used the UK version of "Twenty Flight Rock" and Roger STILL didn't play. Eleven songs were the easiest, gotten by all: #02 Red Hot #08 CC Rider #10 Young Blood #18 Rama Lama Ding Dong #20 Heartbreak Hotel #23 Since I Met You Baby #24 Lonely Teardrops #27 Blue Moon #33 Only You, #35 Don't Let Go #37 When You Dance #14, "This Magic Moment" just missed by a point. Next easiest, missed only once, were: #06 Rubber Biscuit #07 School Day (maybe the shortest clip ever) #21 Gone #34 Angel Baby. One clip did go completely unidentified, and I was surprised that no one got it: #05 Carl Perkins' "Pink Pedal Pushers." Norm pulled off three singles, being the only one to identify #04, "Sweet Nothin's," #12, "My Juanita," and #30, "Strange Love." Norm and Rick doubled on #11, "Smokey Places" and #31, "Zippity Zippity Zoom." Triples were Norm, Cathy and Rick on #13, "One Summer Night," and #32, "Don't Do It," and Marc, Cathy and Rick on #25, "Mojo Hand." And Rick just missed out on another triple with Norm and Cathy on #36, "I Didn't Want To Do It." Thanks again to all for playing.
