Oh, no! ANOTHER Cars and Tunes Puzzle? Solved!
« on: March 06, 2011, 09:32:21 AM »
Another Puzzle about cars, and songs about cars, and the artists who recorded those songs. This installment again spans the scale from "this is ridiculously easy" to "what, are you kidding me?!

The rules are as follows: No points for naming one of these cars - they are mostly quite easy. The points will be awarded for identifying the artist (1 point each), the song (1 point each), and the correct pairing (1 point each) as represented by a corresponding picture of a car, or an automotive event. While many of these artist have gone on to other walks of life, or that recording studio in the sky, and though their records may be long-since out-of-print, there are no insider-only "you have to have the book" requirements. Patience and good detective work is all that is required to find the solution to all of these. The answers are all available to the general public.

Enjoy!

The Recording Artists:


Boss Martians


The Bel Aires


David Pearson


De-Fenders


Dick Dale


Hot Rod Rog (Roger Christian)


Jerry Cole & His Spacemen


Jim Messina & His Jesters


The Revels


The Eligibles


The Four Lovers


The Ready Men


The Super Stocks Featuring Gary Usher


Trashmen


ZZ & de Maskers


...and the songs:


Tamale Wagon


Stick Shift


Squad Car


Soft Top


Roadster Run


My Woodie


Maybellene


Little Street Machine


Joyride


Four Banger


D Gas Chevy


Car Trouble


Cadillac


Blonde in the 406


A-Bone

And we'll keep track of correct ID's and pairings here:

Artist 5 is Mr. Richard Anthony Mansour, better known as Dick Dale, and I suppose he matches Vehicle A with his song 'Taco Wagon'?

Song M - Big Black Cad?


I'm sure Song A must be 'Taco Wagon', so artist 4 must be the De-Fenders, who did rather rousing version of that track!

That quote was very confusing.... was that 'No' to Big Black Cad, The De-Fenders and Taco Wagon?

Artist 4 is definitely The De-Fenders... however the singer they are backing is Ian Whitcomb.... so I suppose that could be Song M - too Many Cars on the Road with the lyric;
"Sitting with my baby
In my big black car"

The quote indicated you had identified the artist correctly.

You have also correctly ID'd artist 4. I wiped out Mr. Whitcomb's face because he was not on the record in question. "Too Many Cars on the Road" is not anywhere in this puzzle
