  2. Phil Collins eventually became the frontman of the prog band Genesis. Who sang and fronted the band before him?
  3. In the late 60s while playing a concert, the band Cream invited a now popular but then largely unknown artist up on stage to jam with them on the song "Killing floor". Word has it the guest played Eric Clapton's socks off, outstaging him on his own concert. Who was this guest?
  4. Courtney Love is the lead singer for the band Hole. She also had a two-years marriage with a popular grunge icon. Who?
  5. The producer behind hit albums like Beatles "Abbey Road" and Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon" also has his own music "project". What is it called?
  6. Elton John's song "Candle in the Wind" was written in 1973 as a tribute to Marilyn Monroe. In 1997, he rerecorded it as a tribute to who .. ?
  7. Ronnie James Dio is a metal legend and is well known for singing with Black Sabbath and, of course, the band "Dio". In the 70s, he was also recruited into a successful metal band by Deep Purple's Ritchie Blackmore. What was the name of this band?
  8. What remains to this date the world's best selling album?
  9. Give me Band / Album / Songtitle to go with the following lyrics "London is drowning and I - live by the river!"
  10. Deep Purple's "Smoke on the Water" doesn't just contain perhaps the world's most well-known guitar riff, it also recounts a true story. From the lyrics, Frank Zappa and the Mothers of invention were having a concert at the gambling house (Montreux Casino). Something happens during the concert. What?

8. Thriller- Michael Jackson
9. The Clash-London's Calling- Same title
10. A fire engulfed the stage

As for 3 a rough guess Rory Gallacher?
Wow, another great attempt by Lee

Fripp likes to sit, correct. Peter Gabriel is correct. 3, as Piss Me Off posted, should have been Jimi Hendrix. Kurt Cobain is correct - Alan Parsons is nearly correct, but the full name of his "music project" (it was a hint) was "The Alan Parsons Project". Princess Di is correct, so is Rainbow and Thriller and London Calling by The Clash is good. I'm also giving you right on the last. According to the song, "some stupid with a flare gun burned the place to the ground".

That gives jackhammer 8 more points for a 15 points total.

Great job!

I'll post more in a bit!
