Scout's Honor No Internet Search R n' R Triva questions (4)

Excellent questions bdp24-

2- Name the electric guitarist who played in the bands of Ricky Nelson, Elvis Presley, and Emmylou Harris."

Who is...Glenn Campbell?

3- Name the three drummers who were members of L.A. studio band The Wrecking Crew."

Who are...Hal Blaine, Buddy Rich and that other guy? I bet $0 assuming this was the "Daily Double."

@tablejockey:

2- Incorrect answer, but a great guitarist none-the-less. And coincidently, Glen was also a member of The Wrecking Crew. Hint: The guitarist in question is well known as a Fender Telecaster player, a pink paisley one no less.

3- Hal Blaine is correct. One down, two to go. Hint: One drummer came out of the New Orleans Jazz scene, the other is considered by many of his peers (including Eric Clapton) to be the best Rock ’n’ Roll drummer of them all. His great playing may be heard on Dave Mason’s debut album, but he is not Jim Keltner.

Correction regarding question no. 1: The song title includes not the saxophonist’s last name, but his first name made into a surname by the addition of the word "Mr." before it.

I haven't Wiki'ed information to any of the questions.

Since Glen was a Beach Boy, I guessed he would have filled in for the others.

Pink Paisley Tele...this one is has me thinking.

Is Mr. Pink Paisley James Burton?

The two bands might be the Police and The Cars.

Steve Cropper, Donald Duck Dunn, Booker T Jones and someone else were members of the Stax house band.

Willie Dixon successfully sued Led Zepplin.

Buddy Holly was born in Lubbock, Texas and died in somewhere else

@tony1954: James Burton is correct. I vividly remember watching James playing his Telecaster on The Ozzie & Harriet Show. After Ricky became a Rock 'n' Roll star, he and his little band closed the show every night. And if you compare James' guitar solo in Ricky's song "Young World" (I had it on a 7" 45) to George Harrison's in The Beatles' "Nowhere Man", you can plainly hear that George modeled the solo on that of James.
