Hey, Blunderites! What's your favorite song by Charles Hawtrey & the Deaf Aids?

Welllll, you've had about a week & you've all flunked this mini-quiz. I thought we had some REAL Beatles fans around here. The answer to the question was, of course, "I Dig a Pigmy."

But here's what I really wanna know:

What didja think of Let It Be...Naked?

Not only the stripped-down "de-Spectorized" songs, but the "de-Lennonizing" of the whole album by Paul (by eliminating John's line about Charles Hawtrey & the Deaf Aids, & others).

Flunked hell! I'm still thinking about responding to the Roy Buchanan post you made a while back...

That's a valid point. Originally, it was not a quiz & there was no time limit. But it was a dead thread & I tried to provoke a response, like I teach all my students at the Joe Bloggs Institute of Internet Posting. It's all in the phrasing. For instance, I could post something like, "I like to read Bukowski" & I may or may not get a response. Or I could post, "Bukowski is better than the shit you're reading right now" & have 5 replies within an hour.

BUT---

Since your point was valid, I'll change everybody's grades to an incomplete, & submit more quiz questions, no time limit on these (I promise):

What did Georgie Wood sing?

Who did the Queen say no to?

Who thought she was a cleaner?

And feel free to tell me what you thought of Let It Be...Naked or to post to my Roy Buchanan thread.

"What did Georgie Wood sing?"

"Can Ya Dig It." And now we'll do "'Ark the Angels Coome."

Who did the Queen say no to?

Oi. I dunno.

Who thought she was a cleaner?

Sweet Loretta Fat. Turns out she's a frying pan.

Very good! You're absolutely correct on 2 of 'em. The Queen said no to pot-smoking FBI members. Check out "For You Blue."
