    [QUOTE=cloughie;134319]OK Cal - he never requested any clarification but you could well be right, but I claim it on a majority verdict![/QUOTE]
    Well ...it makes a change from the customary procedure, I suppose! If majority verdicts are to be allowed as a criterion for the setting of questions, can I request that provision also be made for appeals?

      No argument there Mr C - U are very welcome!

      Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

              Sorry, should have said, out with the singers down the pub. Not Unsung I'm afraid. Code in your first answer correct but wrong kind of band.

                    so the composer is Steve Morse?
                    or somebody else called Morse?
                    do any of the elements of the question begin with U or is it just the link ?

                        Just seen Cloughie's update. I think my answer for element #1 is more likely to be what Rubbers had in mind...
                        Things to Come, was indeed the answer to 1. As it appeared to me to be obvious, I didn't press Cloughie to show his hand. If this were a game of poker, I guess you could have raised him in the stakes, Caliban, but then he was holding the Wild card and you'd have lost.

                        I think he won fair and square

                                A U to link

                                A coded American Band Composer
                                A soprano who has been known to crossover
                                A difficult to pinpoint sixties vocal group - the U appears in one of their song titles, the writer of which might have been responsible for a wet cake.
