What's that noise emanating from the lawn?

No doubt it is the sound of the grass growing.

But I'm in a sulk...

Come on, old chap - you're only one Move from solving it.....

Ron Wood co-founded The Move, who had a Top 10 hit with.....?

Thank you ladies and gentlemen. I am grateful for this opportunity to have another crack at the G, but I could not have done it without the fantastic dedication and support from Anna and mercs.

Tom Jones - Green Green Crass
The Move - "I Can Hear the Grass Grow"
And Denn alles Fleisch es ist wie Gras (For all flesh is as grass)

Well I have just found and munched some M&S Christmas pud found in the cupboard, best before 1/3/13. Delicious.

I also found an Xmas pud dated use by 28/2/12. Now dare I risk that?

Oops, I was too busy unwrapping and Happily munching that I missed your post.

Well done, Flay. Thank you for such a gracious acceptance speech. Your answers provide all the necessary coleslaw, except perhaps the fact Roy Wood co-founded The Move and then went on to become a member of Wizzard.

Cherubini's opera, Ali-Baba or the Forty Thieves, is set in Isfahan;
Duke Ellington (of Mood Indigo etc fame) wrote a piece called Isfahan (part of his Far East Suite);
Gabriel Fauré wrote a song, Les Roses d'Isfahan; which is as far removed from "turbulent" as anyone could imagine.
