[net.music] Wrapup of Name the Artist quiz #5

Not bad, I'm only about 3 weeks late with this.  Sorry, but life gets
that way sometimes.  

Unless I get some overwhelming response on this, I think I am going to
retire the quiz with #5.  I may be back with quickies from time to time,
but generally, I think this will be it.  Besides, Grady can surely pick
up the slack.  :-)

Anyway, the results:
Rich Rosen -- 12
Andrew Rogers -- 23 (perfect)
Grady "nbb" Toss & Mike Souza -- 22
    (I'm Gonna Make You LOVE ME was the Supremes & Temps)
Jeff Richardson -- 19
Kevin Kumpf -- 21
Rich Yampell & Phil Terman -- 23
Jerry Weil -- 21
Rich "Wombat" Kulaweic -- 17  
    (Why would anybody willingly be called The Wombat???)
Greg Skinner -- 12
    (Thanks to J. Eric for forwarding it to me)

OK, now, as the fat lady begins to warm up (after all, it ain't over
until she sings, right?), here are the answers:

EASY
Daydream Believer -- The Monkees
Sunshine on My Shoulders -- John "Pumpkin-Face" Denver
Candy Man -- Sammy Davis, jr
Bad Bad Leroy Brown -- Jim Croce
Puff the Magic Dragon -- Peter Paul & Mary

MEDIUM
Garden Party -- Rick Nelson
Sunshine Superman -- Donovan
For What It's Worth -- Buffalo Springfield
What is Life? -- Georgy Harrison
I'm Gonna Make You Mine -- Lou Christie
   (A lot of people said Shadows of Knight.  I'd never heard of them, and
    my reference book for such issues doesn't list them, except for a minor
    hit with Gloria.  But, I figured, what the ----, give it to 'em!)

HARD
Feelin' Groovy -- Harper's Bizarre
Sunshine (Go Away Today) -- Jonathan Edwards
Michael (Row THE Boat Ashore) -- Highwaymen
Everybody's Everything -- Santana
I've Found Someone of My Own -- Free Movement
Paloma Blanca -- George Baker Selection
     (Julio Iglesias????  Not in MY quiz!)
Patches -- Clarence Carter
One Fine Morning -- Lighthouse
Playground in My Mind -- Clint Holmes
Natural High -- Bloodstone

IMPOSSIBLE
Rock Me Gently -- Andy Kim
Double Shot of My Baby's Love -- Swingin' Medallions
Ariel -- Dean Friedman

OK, Fat Lady, do your thing.  Thanks to all who have participated.  Oh, this
doesn't mean I'm leaving the net, just getting lazy in my old age.  
It looks like the old plug pulling I'd mentioned a while back has been
postponed, at least for now.

Best of whatever...
