Answer to my last Q, The Everly Brothers first recorded Highway 51.


Can you name at least one song recorded by Joan Baez's sister? (duet)

Joan Baez's sister was Mimi Farina....

She recorded with her husband, Richard Farina....

one of thier songs:

"Mainline Prosperity Blues"


:-)

OK... assuming that my answer was correct....

I'll ask the next question.....


What was Joni Mitchell's birth name?



:-)

Roberta Joan Anderson.

The song "I Will Always Love You" was written by whom to whom?

Dolly Parton wrote the song in 1974, when she left the "Porter Wagoner Show" to go out on her own.


:-)

Dolly Parton wrote the song. I think it was for Porter Wagoner when she left his show.

Hey P & L. You pipped me.

Written by Dolly Parton as a farewell song to Porter Wagoner upon her departure from Wagoner's TV show ... somewhere around the early 70's as I recall. She's recorded it several times since, once about ten years ago as a duet with Vince Gill ... that's her most recent recording of it, I think, on the album "Something Special", which was more or less a compilation of her favorite songs by herself and others. I've got it around here somewhere ... played it just the other day.

I'll skip my turn though; unfair advantage - I remember the liner notes from the album

Besides, I'm not a regular visitor to this thread ... dunno how I popped in (musta been a misclick on my part - I thought I was headed for a different thread ), and just thought it was really cool I had the current answer. Go ahead and do another, edgar.

Well, if you insist, timber. Ya never know - You might know the next one also.

Who was Little Miss Dynamite?

LOL ... Guess I let this one hang a little too long before clicking "submit"... see, I knew I had no business playin' this game ... you kids are too quick for me!

OK... I'll ask a question....

following the same idea....


"Killing Me Softly With His Song" was written by whom for whom?



:-)

Well, I know half that one - I know who wrote and recorded it, but I have no idea for whom she wrote it. Now I'm gonna hafta stick around to find out.

OK... I should maybe re-word that question....

"Killing Me Softly With His Song" was written by whom, and inspired by whom (a singer)?



:-)

Little Miss Dynamite -- Brenda Lee


:-)

Dunno fer sure what you mean there, PAL ... the song was written for Brenda Lee?

I was answering the question that Edgar asked....

(he and I asked a question at exactly the same time)

LOL.... no, not Brenda Lee....


here's a hint..... for the "inspired by" person..... He wrote a song and people all over the world were trying to figure out the true interpretation of the song..... it was "killing me softly with his song".... to voice the frustrations of everyone who was listening to the song over and over again.....

Eventually, he revealed that he wrote the song in dedication to Buddy Holly.....
