Was Graham Bonnet called Graham Hood in America?

Were the 13th Floor Elevators called the 13th Floor Lifts in the UK?

Listening to bluegrass tonight.

Searching for the bluegrass Osborne Brothers on YT is frustrataing b/c a lot of the results are of a "modern country" due called Brothers Osborne. Not that I blame them, that's their last name.

Well I don't know.  Lennon Murphy got sued by Yoko Ono 15+ years ago for using her own name.  But the U.S Trademark Board dismissed the petition.  Kurt Loder promoted Murphy for a while on MTV.  As far as I know, her career never really took off.  A number of years ago, she did play a gig near here which I thought about going to.  If you get booked here, it's a given that either you're unknown or your career is already seriously in peril.

Now which one is Ozzy?

I watched some Reaction videos on YouTube. Pretty interesting to see how females responded to the Righteous Brothers Unchained Melody and Sound and Inspiration - they all melted.  Those boys did it right; one rapper could not believe they were white!

The Moody Blues got great reactions too.

It was interesting to see rappers and younger people react to the Doors...and the difference between tunes like Light My Fire and darker stuff like L.A. Woman with the growled "Mr. Mojo Rising"...which was an angram from Jim Morrison's name.

Kinda fun. But it was good to see that the greats consistently come across as great.

I was tempted to start a channel with reactions of an old white guy to rap and hip hop. But nobody would be interested.

The Righteous Brothers could shake it up, too. This is a cover of the Don and Dewey original from the late 50s.

I remember my friend Gene playing this in his Muntz 4-track.

No wonder, Deep Purple ballads always work.

In the 2-3 years I've been in my band, this is the first time (in my tenure) we're doing a cover.  Simple but fun song to play.  Unfortunately our singer isn't nearly as cute as Lauren here.  James agrees.

It's one of the many unsolved mysteries of MSG why Schenker didn't make Derek St. Holmes his singer when he was in the band. On this track he showed that he could have taken MSG so much further in the US:
