Sorry, no.

[cloughie]

I just popped back for a quick look. What gets me is: how do you think up these connections, mercs? Do you dream them? Or are you a Woking expert?

Is he a Woking Class Hero!

[ferneyhoughgeliebte]

Sorry, no.

Curses! I had:

Julie Felix (for some reason called "Britain's first lady of folk) who covered Mr Zimmermann's Blowing in the Wind
Simon & Garfunkel (originally Tom & Jerry) whose Sound of Silence used The Band.
Jimi Hendrix (Are You Experienced) who covered Like a Rolling Stone

... is all of this useless?

[Norfolk Born]

Julie Felix is correct, but you've got the wrong song.
Simon and Garfunkel ditto.

An A to link compositions by Debussy, Ravel and Rutter

[Tapiola]

Thank you.


An A to link compositions by Debussy, Ravel and Rutter

Please, please Mr Ferney, sir! Is it "antique"?

[Nick Armstrong]

Please, please Mr Ferney, sir! Is it "antique"?

Oh yes, Rutter wrote a 'Suite Antique'. You clever old so-and-so...

The word is in the plural for the Debussy, of course, n'est-ce pas?

[ferneyhoughgeliebte]

Please, please Mr Ferney, sir! Is it "antique"?

Yes, it is! Bravo (and apologies for the delay) - a mere 8 minutes after setting.

The B from your bonnet, please.

(add Debussy's Six Épigraphes Antiques, Ravel's Menuet Antique to Cali's Rutter!)

Oh, I so wish I'd thought of that!
