    Damn... jgido, you must be older than I am... Just dove into my 2 HH albums and neither has "Silouhettes" on it. And if they did, no matter, I don't think liner notes had been invented yet... :lol:

    Alright logical attack called for... early to mid-60's, guitarist, UK, later own band... and guess not likely a huge name.. so I'll go with ...

    Ray Davies...

    Well my ego is still down, I guessed and I still know nothing, to further prove the fact here is a snowball of a question.

    On Neil Young's album "Harvest" name the two big name artists who sang back up on both Old Man and Heart of Gold.

    If that was too easy, on Old Man, who is the Old Man, Neil is singing about.

    First of all F1nut you are correct. It was not really a two part question, sorry for the "extra".

    When Neil bought his Broken Arrow ranch, the guy who sold it to him was the inspiration for the song "Old Man"

    Ok, if you say so.

    Who did Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Pete Townsend dub as "King Guitar?"

    During a jam session with Jimi in London, Clapton actually stopped playing and watched... I actually believe the "experience" almost ruined Eric. I don't think he ever really stretched after that.

    OK on to business... and coming home to the USA...

    Two parter (I like them, OK?):
    This group featured the son of a prominent American entertainer, both on stage and in their name. Their biggest hit, "This Diamond Ring" rose to #1 on Billboard's pop list.

    1.) Name the Group....(25%)
    2.) Name their other hit that rose to #2.....(75%)

    Time expires at 18:00 Sunday.

    #1 is easy... Gary Lewis and the Playboys ("This diamond ring doesn't shine for me anymore....Who wants to buuuuuy this diamond ring?")

    I'll have to think about #2

    Taking a guess on #2, is it "She's Just My Style"?

    BTW, Gary Lewis & The Playboys had a few good hits. A very underrated band.

    Frank,
    No, I think "Palisades Park" was by a guy nicknamed "Boom Boom".

    jgido,
    No, but you got the first letter correct...

    I feel evil with this one....

    Yepper's... that would have been a great "oldies" question... I'll bet he has an anthology out there that's worth owning...

    But of course the Gary Lewis hit remains undiscovered as yet...
