The "link" Quiz.

[Billy_Dean]

I once did a radio show for a local radio station in London, in the 70's. It was actually a competition that I won, my prog was then broadcast.

The show was called "Links". The idea was to link one track to the next by means of trivia. The show was an hour long, the last track had to then link back to the first one, forming a circle.

For example: If the first track was "Still I'm Sad" by "The Yardbirds", the link to the next track could be ... "Jessica" by "The Allman Brothers band". Your link could be ... "Eric Clapton played for The Yardbirds and The Allman Brothers" The next link would then carry on in the same way... "If I Could Turn Back Time" by "Cher" the link .. "Cher was married to Gregg Allman" ... and so on ..

I thought I'd try it here as a quiz, see how it goes.


So post the next track, the artist, and your "Link"

I'll start the ball rolling ...
