Title: Poker Bits N Pieces Quiz Post by: KeithyB on September 29, 2006, 10:57:54 PM I sometimes compile pop quizzes and as we seem to have a lot of music lovers on Blonde I thought I'd share a particular one that I put together this afternoon.
Just a bit of fun but it's a selection of 15 clips from songs all of which are related to the game of poker in some way either via the title or artist. Nothing obscure, should be all well known UK hits. Spread across the decades although does include one that only those in the ;tk; bracket may know. Should work if you paste the line below in your browser.( rather than just clicking the link ;frustrated; ) http://uk.geocities.com/keravon007@btinternet.com/mixpok.MP3 PS ......Tracks are split by a noise which should be familiar to those of a certain age who remember the radio 1 roadshows of the 70's and 80's ;D Title: Re: Poker Bits N Pieces Quiz Post by: Ironside on September 29, 2006, 11:12:43 PM you have over used your limit on geocities for 24 hours

Reckon I've only got 6 right. Couple others I know the song but not the band so struggling there. (No. 9 being a case in point: I remember the video featuring a very talented teacher...great song but can't remember the name of the guy/band that performed it...oh and No.15. Remember the title and it being a cover featuring 'Lindy Leyton' [I think] but can't remember the band....grrrrrr) Title: Re: Poker Bits N Pieces Quiz Post by: Claw75 on October 01, 2006, 08:48:05 PM That was fun :)
I could answer 9 straight off, 5 that I know I know, but can't put finger on. And then there was the ;tk; one!!!! Title: Re: Poker Bits N Pieces Quiz Post by: KeithyB on October 01, 2006, 11:40:36 PM Just glad you both managed to get the thing to actually work! :)up
Hey Billy..."ft Lindy Layton" would get you a bonus point down my local ! Nice going Claire considering the lack of vocals in there. Remember each one has a poker link which might help on the missing ones. (But answers available by pm if you want :) ) Oh and the ;tk; one did get to #3 in 1958 ! ;gobsmacked; ( phew this anorak's warm! ) Title: Re: Poker Bits N Pieces Quiz Post by: mikkyT on October 02, 2006, 03:39:00 AM http://mikkysworld.com/mixpok.MP3
