A. Otis Redding.

Ignoramus!

He did know the the latin name for the segment of the molecule that is linked in a vacuum with the nucleus of the nitrogen atom when electrically charged though!

He and his brother moved from Manchester to Primrose Hill, and used to shop in Camden Safeway. They also refused my offer of a coffee while they were stood outside Chris Evans' house

Motown history should be compulsory education IMO.

Actually the normal music questions are about the 'classics' and they always get answered so it just shows what those studious types listen to.

The original chin strokers, I think.

I think you'll find that was Elvis. A lot of people mistook him for two people.

Sh*t!

I always thought that Otis Redding, his brother Noel, the Temptations, the Platters and Jimi Hendrix where all in the Supremes along with Betty Swann and that I Can't Help Myself by the Supremes was only ever 'covered up' as The Krankies!

The DJ who sold me that record (once he'd uncovered it) with that line up shall for now remain nameless!!!!!!

Keep the faith my arse, the bastard!!!!!!!!!

Frank Wilson played bassoon and Berry Gordy was on the harp, he was an accomplished harpist.

I forget who played on the bongos Diana Ross springs to mind.

Otis came over to the UK in 1961 and formed a tender relationship with Bernard Cribbins and played the spoons on the famous My Old Man's A Dustman.

Ay !,what you on about,you been on the sauce
