Godzilla Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 (edited) Anybody up for a bit of fun with this? I've put up an MP3 mix of 12 diferent versions of well known tunes. They range from dead easy to rock hard (I reckon!) and all except the last one are 45s. See how many you can guess. It's only a bit of Sunday afternoon entertainment so don't take it to seriously and feel free to have a punt. Alternatively you might just fancy listening to some nice tunes There's Jazz, blues, funk, easy, even something a bit countryish but not much in the way of Northern so best not download it if that's all you're into. The file is about 34 MB so you might struggle with dial up. I've scanned all the labels and will post them up after any correct guesses. Here's the list of songs and the link. Good luck Ode To Billy Joe Son Of A Preacher Man Jim Dandy It Was a Very Good Year You Don't Love Me Watermelon Man Wichita Lineman Bang Bang California Soul The Beat Goes On Am I The Same Girl Woodstock https://www.zen108856.zen.co.uk/images/A1%2...%20Familiar.mp3 Edited March 11, 2007 by Godzilla Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Regards Alan Don't know why you should have proplems with the link, Alan, but well done for having a go. Here's one you got right without even hearing it! Not going to drag this out for ever so here's the rest. Obviously a bit harder than I thought! Cheers to all who particpated. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Here's one you got right without even hearing it! Yeah, nothing wrong with the link, just took forever to get on to it. My problem, too impatient. Hand on heart, I would have got the Messengers and Ray Charles, would of struggled with the rest. Bit disapointing no one else had a pop. Thanks Godz, enjoy a quiz.
