Guess the Year III

Sorry there was no comp last weekend, entertaining the fourum gu'vner at Thruxton. The stories I could tell ;) ;)

This week as I have just returned fron a very, very hectic business trip, regretfully in the Caribbean, so the quiz will take a slighty differant format this week.

Just name the top four pop artists that are the ALL TIME bestsellers in the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) figures for American sales in correct order.

What has this to do with cars I hear you say......

Racing in the rain might be the clue for one
Another was famous with a Roller
One had a funny coloured Caddy
The last I don't know but horsepower is at the max I'm sure.

The clues are surely so easy, just get them in the correct order.

My apologies, the first line is utter rubbish

"Racing in the rain might be the clue for one"

My 'friend' got her Mucking Fongs Suddled.

It should read, and sorry but it's the best I can do at short notice but..

'Jimmy Page and gang..'

Need I say more. It was The Doors, who done Riders of the Storm, not L** *******. Stupid ***..

You can be sure suitable punishment will be administered :) :)

No Idea.

What's this got to do with Historic Racing? Or are you trying to assess the average age of the posters, cos if you are, my dad gave me the answers.;)

Sorry, it was 'cause I did not have time to look up enough info and so asked a freind to work out a few questions.

Anyway the answers are.

1. Led Zepplin
2. Beatles (George Harrisons decorated car)
3. Elvis (Pink Caddy)
4. Garth Brooks

The top selling artists are

1. Beatles 150m albums
2. Garth Brooks 100m
3. Led Zepplin
4. Elvis 86m

Next week will return to cars.
