beat me to it!
Both of you guys hit the nail right on the head. It was an excellent question.
"Tell me why I had to be a Powerslave" |
Here's another crazy link question. Connect Rush to Kansas. Hint: A link at the beginning may involve people playing on one song of a solo album. Here's the format of how I did it:
Rush (person) (person) (person) (band) (person) (band) (person) Kansas |
I just came up with a completely different route that's longer but perhaps easier with the following format:
Rush (person) (person) (band) (person) (band) (person) (band) (person) (band) (person) Kansas This one's got more progressive rock relevance too. |
I just thought of a way to shorten the previous one:
Rush (person) (person) (band) (person) (band) (person) (band) (person) Kansas This is so much fun! |
I just thought of a few more variations. Due to the amount of possible answers, I'm expecting at least 3 from everybody.
|
Maybe a match?
I'm not sure if it's exactly one of the three suggested, but I have:
Rush Alex Lifeson Les Claypool Ozzy Osbourne (on a smokin' remake of N.I.B.) Black Sabbath Ronnie James Dio Rainbow Ritchie Blackmore Deep Purple Steve Morse Kansas |

Next question I'm going to do a 24 hour Aural Moon stint!!! |
Not what I had, but looks good. You could have gone straight from Sabbath to Deep Purple via Ian Gillan. Here's some of my possibilities.
Rush Geddy Lee Matt Cameron Tony Iommi Black Sabbath Ian Gillan Deep Purple Steve Morse Kansas Rush Geddy Lee Ben Mink FM Greg Critchley Mullmuzzler James Labrie Explorer's Club or Leonardo: Absolute Man Steve Walsh Kansas Rush Max Webster Kim Mitchell Greg Critchley Mullmuzzler James Labrie Dream Theater Jordan Rudess Dixie Dregs Steve Morse Kansas |
Old age
I should be flogged for not going through Ian Gillian. I was just going too fast.
Ben Mink and Max Webster were original guesses, but I took the easy way out. |
Ok, here were go.................
This is my last link question. If I get one right in the future, I'll try something like my numerical Genesis question.
Keith - I just realized Bernie Torme was on Ian Gillian's solo stuff, so I could have gotten really nasty on the question but here it is: Go from Progdirjim to Angus Young! Progdirjim artist artist brother of artist artist band artist x big hint - you can get to here easily by reading a post made by Jim! band artist band artist band artist * a small hint (and for extra credit) - in six steps from here you can get to Robert Fripp! band Angus Young Due to the nature of the hints, only one correct answer is acceptable. I just thought it was great fun to link Jim with Angus! |
Here's a "wrong" answer for everybody to chew on until someone gets the one you're going for:
progdirjim Larry Mitchell James East Nathan East Bryan Ferry Roxy Music Eddie Jobson Jethro Tull Martin Barre John Wetton Asia Chris Slade AC/DC Angus Young |
close, give it another try
You are OK up to Tull, and OK from Slade onward. You need:
Tull artist band artist band Chris Slade Will you get it Bob, or will someone sneak in! Remember the extra credit: Slade band artist band artist band Fripp Was Slade in Asia? If so, what a waste! A progressive goat walks into a bar, and says, "I'll have a Spock's Beard"! |
Incestuous smokers Roll their own.
progdirjim
Larry Mitchell James East Nathan East Bryan Ferry Roxy Music Eddie Jobson Jethro Tull Clive Bunker Aviator Mick Rogers M.M.E.B Chris Slade AC/DC Angus Young The extra credit is a tricky one. I've got: Chris Slade Uriah Heep John Wetton Asia Greg Lake King Crimson Robert Fripp But we could miss out the Asia-Lake link and it would still work. Edit: Just checked Chris Slade did tour with Asia. Also, Clive Bunker was in M.M.E.B for a while too. What an incestuous lot these Prog guys are!!!! I think that Bob has it!!!!! BTW: Appalling joke Rick. Next day the same goat walked into another bar. He ended up in hospital as it was an iron bar :o |
Keith -
The fact that the US celebrates Labor Day makes up for the time difference in this case!
You are correct - all answers are correct. Technically, you have the question. However, it looks like you are ceding control to Bob -please do as you wish. Chris Slade played with Uriah Heep too! Holy shit! He's a regular Simon F'ing Phillips! For the extra credit I had: Chris Slade The Firm Paul Rodgers Bad Company Boz Burrell KC Robert Fripp (I was going to go to Darryl Hall & then John Oates, but a 21-part question was a little much) - linking Jim to John Oates. Go for it, Keith or Bob! An appaling joke? Naaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh! |
Well as I'm here and bob's not..........
These are the first letters of the opening words to well known prog songs. What are the songs.
An example: PMOKCTIMDWY = Play Me Old King Cole, That I May Dance With You = Musical Box by Genesis. 1) KIWSNRTE 2) RDMIYSTOO 3) WATSRITTTO 4) HVGOTTSOLMHD 5) MUHACPTNKA 6) CFICNSSFM That'll do for now. To make it a little easier the bands in question and in no particular order are: Rush, Genesis, Moody Blues, King Crimson, Jethro Tull and Yes. Good luck......enjoy. |
You are the MAN!
I better get busy!

I did have an answer in this post, but then I realized the answer had already been given. In a valiant effort to avoid certain embaressment, I have edited the post, removing the offending response.

Go for it Bob
I'm taxing my brain too much on this - why don't you hit us with another question?
