    Truly awesome, and a beautiful example of using a violin in rock/fusion. Jerry Goodman had already done very well in the short-lived "The Flock".

    Lawrence Welk?
  5. Here you get three for the price of one. Sadly, they just made one outstanding album; the follow-up 5 years later was crap. And as a bonus
  6. According to this web site https://ourworldindata.org/coronavirus#coronavirus-country-profiles the total number of tests in the US up to today is around 28 M. They do not give numbers for the EU as a single entity, but when you add up the numbers from individual countries you get 14 M for Germany, Italy and Spain combined. The four most populous countries in the EU are these three plus France; data for France seem to be missing. Germany, Italy and Spain have a total population of 190 M, compared to 330 M for the US. Thus, I would say that the percentage of the population that has been tested on both sides of the Atlantic is similar.
  7. I always saw you as a rational poster, but here you are really comparing apples and oranges. A shop owner might deny service to people without mask to prevent infection of other customers. Buying cigarettes, booze, or Coke might kill the buyer, but will not affect the other customers in the store.
  8. Wednesday I watched the riot...
  9. When I went to college in the seventies, the student club had parties every Saturday. The two favorite "long" songs were "In A Gadda Da Vida" and Deep Purple's "Smoke on the Water". I very much preferred the latter.
  10. Very interesting topic. Usually I think the longer the better. It might be blasphemy, but I prefer the 20:30 version of "Cortez the Killer" by Built to Spill over Neil Young's 7:29 original. But there is one song where everything is said after two and a half minutes:

    I am not sure. However, I would agree that at some point of his later career Zappa cared about muffins.

    Bingo! Another winner! But still, the mystery of the item in young Frank's hands (pic in the middle) remains unsolved. Any suggestions?

    Not Simon, but he is a musician.

    This might just be the hormones during puberty. Later in his life, he was actually quite slim. Not an actor.

    Who is this handsome fellow? For a bonus, please let me know what he holds in his hands in the pic in the middle. I have no clue - looks like a massacred koala.

    It is actually his cousin Robert Earl. If you are curious about the other people in the pic, the guy on the right is Uncle Butch, and the two ladies are Aunts Helen and Ozella. Now a quiz question for you: In what state was the picture taken?

    Bingo!! We have a winner. It is the boy who would become Darth Vader and Mufasa.

    No, to my knowledge he was never accused of sexual harassment. Another hint: He is an actor in theater, film, and TV.

    Not a musician, but he did voices for animated movies.

    Not a politician. A small hint: The pic was taken in 1941/42.

    On the left from ours - the guy with the bottle. Not a religious figure.
