bid_em_up Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 After changing his name to Yusuf Islam, Cat Stevens got off the ol' Peace Train long enough to note that this author deserved to die -- and the Qur'an "makes it clear" that he must -- for writing his most famous book. Who is Salman Rushdie? (What was "The Satanic Verses?") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bid_em_up Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 Rock and roll jeopardy for 100 Alex: How many number one hits did CCR have? No you cannot look up the answer on google. :rolleyes: What is a trick question? They had zero #1 hits on the U.S. Billboard charts. They did have some in other countries/on other charts, but I can't find how many. I actually knew the answer before using Google to try to found out how many they had outside of the US. The local radio station does a trivia contest each morning and this was one of the recent questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lobowolf Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 davey moore is the other boxer, great song. Correct! Davey Moore, "The Springfield Rifle," world featherweight champion, killed in the ring at the age of 29. Bizarrely, another world champion named Davey Moore was killed tragically OUTSIDE the ring, a week short of his 29th birthday. He sort of ran himself over; his car lurched forward when he got out of it while it was running, to open the garage door. He was still active and had won his two most recent fights, but is probably best known for losing maybe Roberto Duran's last great performance.

Aberlour10 Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 Greatest rock&roll song? its impossible for me to choose... I was the typical new-wave-kid in the 80's .....till I got in my hand by a chance the old Led Zeppelin II album... I played it and thought: wow! I listened to the "Whole Lotta Love" and said WOW! I think, that song has biased me mostly ever... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

American music, with the exception of country music, is very very known in Europe, much more than american sports (and politics/geography), but behind american movies. However I have problems with songs released before I was born :). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd put Heaven and Hell by Black Sabbath on the short list, too. Strongly disagree with Mike about Hurricane; I think it's Dylan's best. I'd probably like it even more if I thought Carter were innocent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
