Mary Wilson/Nancy Wilson...Which one's the Supreme
and which one is the jazz singer?
Iggy Pop/Ian Dury...They were both kinda
goofballs too
Todd Rundgren/Nils Lofgren/Kenny Loggins...Lofgren's
name is guilty of creating all the confusion.No one
mixes up Kenny w/Todd
BlackFoot/Black Oak Arkansas...Both Southern
Rockers. Same genre really gums up the works.
Buddy Miles/Buddy Guy/Buddy Rich...Buddy Ebsen,
bless his hillbilly soul, with his two syllables is
beyond the madness. I used to confuse Charlie (Behind
Close Doors) Rich with Buddy Rich the drummer though
but with enough therapy that chapter of my life closed
and I became well enough to distinguish between the
two thank you. Problem is Charlie Rich and Charley
Pride both do country but the shrink helped me sort
that out later too. It's been tough going.
Albert King/BB King/Freddie King/Eddie King/Earl King etc...Bluesman all.Then there's Freddie "Are
You Lonely For Me Baby" Scott the soulster to boot.
Thin Lizzy/Nazareth/Golden Earring...Irish then
Scottish then Dutch. And they all looked like pirates
to me. All 70's too!
Def Lepard/Judas Priest/Scorpions...The first
one SOUNDS German but I think only the last one WAS
German.
Dokken/Krokus...Oh KaKa!
Tesla/Pantera...Make me feel like having
Pasta. Mama Mia that's a louda rockaband!
Winger/Warrant/SkidRow...Do we really miss the
80's?
Poison/Nelson/Cinderella...The first two have
similar names and then the third just has their same
hair and look so gets embroiled.
Ratt/Wasp...Argh!Egad! Call pest
control...before I use increasingly vulgar 4 letter
expletives.
Dr. Hook/Dr.John/Dr. Feelgood...Always messes me up.
Need a Dr. for bad headache now.
Friends of Distinction/Main Ingredient/Undisputed
Truth...All 1 hit wonder type singing soul
groups. Could add Fifth Dimension to this too even
though they had lots of hits.
LoverBoy/NightRanger/Survivor/Triumph...80's Rock
behemoths. The last one because I automatically think
a survivor is one who triumphs.
Soul Coughing/Soul Asylum/Social Distortion/Sound
Garden/Silver Chair...Simple Minds is plural so
somehow they are not a problem. I then mix up the last
one with NickelBack because silver is like money and
nickels are of course silver colored. Doesn't end!
Brian Jones/Mick Taylor/Mick Jones/Ron Wood...All
except 3rd one I believe were with the Stones.
Veritably my dear fellows! A diabolical cabal
entangling with an intricate web of deceit the
impressionable unsuspecting well-intentioned young
record-buying public.
Righteous Brothers/Everly Brothers/Bellamy
Brothers...You see the Everly Brothers harmonies
sounded righteous and then Bellamy sounds like Everly.
So there! I have my reasons.
The Smiths/The Pogues/The Posies/The Stone
Roses...A pocketful of posies...posies are
flowers like stone 'roses' right? I hope so. Otherwise
I'm just an idiot.
The Cult/The Cure/The Call/The Church/The
Clash/The Alarm...The Horror!The Horror!
Little Richard/Little Anthony/Little Willie John...I
just know one of them was with the Imperials dammit.
Concrete Blondes/Violent Femmes...Twisted Sister
was heavy metal so they stay out of it (like the NY
Dolls) but then I mess THEM up with Quiet Riot for
some reason.
Pure Prairie League/Little River Band/Little
Feat...All kinda lazyish country sounding Southern
not Hard rock.
Jeffrey Osbourne/James Ingram...I think they were
both on We Are the World too.
U2/US3/UB40/NRBQ...The MC5 (Motor City Five)
I'm sure will be happy to know are safe and not
involved in this sordid debacle.
Alice In Chains/Jesus and Mary Chain/Jesus
Jones...I know someone who bought an album of
the second group figuring it was gospel music. Even
worse my Aunt Lucy once bought my cousin Aram a
Steeleye Span album instead of Steely Dan for
Christmas. He kept it! Said it wasn't bad at all. He
played guitar and as a musician found the record kinda
interesting.
Prefab Sprout/Toad the Wet Sprocket/Everything But the
Girl...What were they thinking?
The Cranberries/The Raspberries/The
Strawbs...Strawbs leads to The Tubes although they
aren't as yummy.
Canned Heat/Hot Tuna/Humble Pie...Sticking with the
food theme. Lot of Hs here too add to the merriment.
And Finally,
Frankie Goes to Hollywood/Johnny Hates
Jazz...Misakman Hates Both.
