I watched the Manson movie (Helter Skelter) a few months ago, it was Dennis, the one who ended up drowning in the 80s.

Next question...

What is the feature common to all of Roxy Music's album covers?

It was infact Brian Wilson, the only one who compete on a mental level with Mr Manson.

I thought it was brian but I know dennis had the mansons living with him and shit so they could done something.

The almighty wikipedia doesn't lie:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennis_Wilson#Charles_Manson (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennis_Wilson#Charles_Manson)

There's a whole bit in there about his involvement with Manson.

Plus the movie I talked about, Helter Skelter, only lists Dennis as a character on IMDB.

Annnyway the answer to my question was that they all feature women on them!

Check these pics for a couple of examples:

FunkyJ can have it I guess, as due to the wording of my question his answer is technically correct.

Well I read it in Nikki Sixx's (kind of) autobiography so you could be right there...though someone else clarified it for me the other day saying it was when Mark Knopfler saw one of their music videos on a TV in an electronics store that gave him the lyrics, so who knows?
Posted: 30 Jan 2010, 3:53pmrecoveredSubject: Re: Music Quiz
yeah i think nikki stixs claimed it was Crue on mtv on the tvs in the store knofler went to. and that it was about their rockstar lives.

Posted: 15 May 2010, 1:00amrecoveredSubject: Re: Music Quiz
The ring of fire around the guy who survived the plane crash album.

Close enough but the opposite. If you look the guy who has the ring of fire around his head was their amazing lead guitarist, Steve Gaines, who unfortunately was one of the victims.

It was mostly the fact that the band were surrounded by flames, which given that a few of them died in a plane crash shortly after it's release, was obviously considered poor taste. They re-released it with an all-black cover after that.

Next question mate...
Posted: 18 May 2010, 9:06pmrecoveredSubject: Re: Music Quiz
Yeah, my recollection of that was a bit vague. I seem to remember there was a conspiracy theory regarding where the flames were in regards to who died and who survived.

Ok

Senator Bob Brown of the Green Party, was a Doctor in London for a time in the late 60's, early 70's. What famous situation was he involved in.

I'll leave it for now but clues will be available if it's to difficult.

He was the on-call Doctor at the hospital that Jimi was brought to and was the one who pronounced him dead.

I would've thought it was Titanic for sure after the thrashing MHWGO got.

It was an educated guess. They were massive in the US with "Down Under" and "Who Can It Be Now?" and I didn't think INXS (my other choice) would've been quite so early. I can't believe INXS never made it on there in the intervening years though!

Yep, the middle name was spelled Aaron not Aron.

I think it was spelled Aaron though!

I just checked wikipedia and came up with this...interesting.

Quote
The correct spelling of his middle name has long been a matter of debate. The physician who delivered him wrote "Elvis Aaron Presley" in his ledger.[343] The state-issued birth certificate reads "Elvis Aron Presley". The name was chosen after the Presleys' friend and fellow congregation member Aaron Kennedy, though a single-A spelling was probably intended by Presley's parents in order to parallel the middle name of Presley's stillborn brother, Jesse Garon.[135] It reads Aron on most official documents produced during his lifetime, including his high school diploma, RCA record contract, and marriage license, and this was generally taken to be the proper spelling.[344] In 1966, Presley expressed the desire to his father that the more traditional biblical rendering, Aaron, be used henceforth, "especially on legal documents."[343] Five years later, the Jaycees citation honoring him as one of the country's Outstanding Young Men used Aaron. Late in his life, he sought to officially change the spelling to Aaron and discovered that state records already listed it that way. Knowing his wishes for his middle name, Aaron is the spelling his father chose for Presley's tombstone, and it is the spelling his estate has designated as official.

"Love Buzz" is a song written by Robbie van Leeuwen of Dutch rock band Shocking Blue, first released as part of the group's 1969 album At Home. Their version was sampled for the song "Phoenix" by The Prodigy on their 2004 album Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned.
The American grunge band Nirvana recorded a cover version of the song for its 1988 debut single

Final clue then and if no one gets it after this I don't know what rock they've been living under!

The S in SKG stands for Spielberg and the K stands for Katzenberg.

Therefore, SKG = Spielberg/Katzenberg/Geffen.

The movie studio is called __________ SKG. Their logo is a boy sitting in the moon fishing into the clouds. Some of the movies they have made are Saving Private Ryan, Gladiator and War Of The Worlds. They are particularly well known for their animation arm churning out the Shrek series and Kung Fu Panda among others.

Hmm, good question. It depends on how far you can categorise something as electronic music. I'm sure there were early examples in perhaps the 50s/60s of people using synthetic sounds in their songs.

I'm guessing that you're looking for something that is wholly electronically produced though...as in no acoustic/organic sounds at all?

Perhaps the theme to Doctor Who?
