15 Minute Warning

 

After posting Round 3, I'll be gone for about 15 minutes, but I'm coming right back.

[Ditch Fahrenheit]

Ok, here we go.

 

The Signature Series Game

(Round #3)

 

Each round is worth a total of 10 possible points.

5 sigs at a time.

Contestants identify either signature, book, or both in post.

Each signature identification worth +1 point.

Each book identification worth +1 point.

Winners determined by time-stamp on post.

No hints. All items are continuously in play and will be archived if unsolved before next round.

Archived items can be solved at any time.

Examples:

If someone is first to correctly identify both the signature AND the book in the same post, it's worth +2. If only one is identified (sig or book), it's worth +1 and the corresponding book or sig is still in play.

 

Someone who put a lot of time and energy into trying to identify a book from Round X can solve it from the archives at "any" time regardless of the current Round.

 

Please identify the signatures and/or books by number to make it easy. Example:

1) Stan Lee, Amazing Fantasy 15

2) etc.

[DeadpoolJr.]

They must have horrible penmanship, if their signatures are right in front of us, and we still can't get it.

[Ditch Fahrenheit]

These must be a little more difficult than the last two rounds.

I think I know 2 and 5 hold on

Long Black Road

 

So, last night I'm watching Supernatural, and this amazing song comes on. It sounds like Jeff Lynne or early ELO, but I'd never heard it before.

 

 

I had to find it.

 

 

After perusing some fan sites, I DID find it. The reason I'd never heard it before was because it was never officially released, except as a bonus track on the Japanese version of the American Hustle movie soundtrack. And it IS Jeff Lynne.

 

Turns out, Lynne cut it from his last release back in 2001 - Zoom. I have no idea why, since it's better than anything else on the album. Zoom also featured Ringo Starr and some of the last recordings of George Harrison.

 

 

 

Have a listen...it's the best Rock and Roll I've heard in a long, long time.

 

 

You gotta get up in the morning take your heavy load

And you gotta keep goin' down the long black road

[BlowUpTheMoon]

The song ain't bad.

[Ditch Fahrenheit]

It's just your basic, straight-up, rock-n-roll ditty.

 

But since it doesn't have a stripper using auto-tune with backup dancers, this dinosaur has nowhere to go.

[BlowUpTheMoon]

I'm still enjoying Royal Blood.

[Ditch Fahrenheit]

Yeah, those guys are great.

 

I still think you'd like Tony Levin.

 

Here he is doing Black Dog (Zepp)...check out what he's doing on the bass.

Now I'm on a Tony Levin jag...
