   Can anybody out there who gets the 'Q' magazine monthly, tell me
    what Album cover #15 is in this months quiz . It has two or three
    photos on it - one of what looks like a chap with 3 golf balls in
    his mouth !
    
    Much appreciated !
    
    A.Y.M.O.P.

    Haven't got the mag in front of me, but it sounds like a part of
    thr Stones 'Exile on Main St'.  I'll have a check over the weekend.

   re -.1
    
    Funally enough , a few of us in the group were looking at he covers
    and thought that is was surprising that there was no Stones cover
    in the quiz. 
    
    Thanks for checking, I hope you are right !
    
    A.Y.M.O.P.

    EOMS definately had a photo on it with a guy with 3 balls in his
    mouth!

    Yup, it's Exile on Main st.   Does anyone know the one thats just
    to the left of the Clash cover?  Its so familiar, but I just can't
    place it.

    Ain't it J.W. Harding - Bob Dylan

    Can anybody help me with competition in July's Q magazine. I'm stuck
    on No.11, No.12, and No.13. I think No.14 is Springsteen but not
    too sure. I'm pretty certain about the rest so if I can help anyone
    in exchange.....

    
    11. Keith Richards
    12. Mark King (Level 42)
    13. Jon Bon Jovi
    14. Bruce Springsteen

    Thank's very much - isn't no.11 Lemmy or have you seen this photo
    before? Wishing you luck, can't see the one person winning all 750
    quids worth, methinks there will probably be about 20 winners.

    
    
    re -1 - I think you're right. There will be a lot of winners.
    
    I couldn't get all of them, but it's the nearest I've ever got to
    completing the Q quiz.

    Sorry - Keith Richards it is - wasn't aware The Rolling Stones did
    an album "Sticky Fingers"

    Well they did - and it had a most disGUSTing album cover.

    has anyone been to the restaurant of the same name yet run by that
    lover of the young.
    guy

    Yes this month's compo has baffled me again - especially the original
    artists ! Can anybody identify original artists no.7, 12, 15 and
    20.  
    Also, who is J in the cover versions section and what was the
    Bananarama/French and Saunders group called?
    
    Hope I can help someone on the others.
    
    
                         Ta ! Peter
    

20 - Smokey Robinson and the Miracles

 J - Maxi Priest
 0 - Neenanannanoonoo ... or something like that

  
 

    Isn't no. 11 Smokey Robinson and the Miracles. If you look at page
    157 .....

    A minor digression whilst on the subject of Q.
    
    Wasn't it nice to see that article on J J Cale in this months issue.
    
    Well for those who know who Cale, I am sure they would have found
    it interesting.
    
    Good to see he has a new album coming out.
    
    He probably recorded it lying down, having become too laid back
    to do anything else.

Re: This month's Q quiz. 

Which of the songs did Neil Young originally do? (hope it's not Puppy Love!!!) 

And who is on the cross in the top left of the cover version pictures (Spinal 
Tap doing Delilah???)

--Patrick--

    I know that Sensational Alex Harvey band did a cover of Delilah
    and that it was Paul Anka that did the original of Puppy Love

June's Competition has stumped me again. I know the common link, it's just I 
can't identify the second person from the left. The link is presumably that they 
have all worked with David Bowie, so if anyone can identify this mystery person
or name me anyone else with whom Bowie has worked besides Bing Crosby, Queen and 
Mick Jagger ... I would be proper chuffed...and the office would have something
to listen to on the shifts !

    Its Pat Metheney...remember that song,err...from The Falcon and The
    Snowman movie, err...something about America, or Living in America, or
    somesuch.

I'm impressed "oh fount of all knowledge".

Now that you mention it I have the 12" of This Is No America in my collection.
It just goes to show how much dust it must be gathering.

Thanks again !

    No Problem...now the next question is Where is Bob Green?  And just
    where does he get those shirts? (Just so that we can avoid the place!).

Stevie Ray Vaughn also played with Bowie, on the 'Let's Dance' album.

And didn't Brian Eno work with him, maybe on 'Heroes'.....

Another guitarist of his went on to join Phantom, Rocker, and Slick (Earl 
Slick was the guitarist's name, the other two were former Stray Cats members).

And, of course, Mick Ronson played guitar for Bowie in the 70s.

Did Bowie produce Mott The Hoople? I thought he wrote "All The Young Dudes" 
for them.

Alan S.

    Yes.. he did
    
    Also Bowie and Iggy Pop worked on several of each others albums in 1977-78.
    
    David Bowie did backing vocals on Lulu's hit "The Man Who Sold the
    World" (which is a Bowie song)
    
    He also worked with Georgio Moroder on the soundtrack to the film "Cat
    People"
    
    Dave 

    Didn't John Lennon and Bowie record "Across the Universe" on Young
    Americans ?

    
    Yes, John is also on the original "Fame."
