Nah, that's too easy! (What is the name of the California school for children with special needs founded by Neil & his wife Peggi?)

I'm gonna give you 5) What event in 1989 prompted Young to resume including 'Ohio' in his live sets after ignoring the song for more than a decade?

I don't know this one...

OK, here are a couple of good ones:

7) Which Otis Redding hit did Young perform during a 1993 tour & what famous band was backing him at the time?

9) What was the name of the mid 60s Mowtown band fronted by Rick James which briefly featured Young as a member?

Booker T & the MGs is indeed right! You've got a pretty good chance of getting the song right, even if you only know a couple of Otis tracks...

[dragonboy]

Neil Young & Rick James?!!

That's madness  ;D

[red]

It is a great track, isn't it? Made me think of early Rolling Stones, that sort of thing...

Has anyone answered this yet?  It's Mynah Birds.  I have some of their studio recordings.  Good stuff, they were signed to Motown and had to break up when Rick James got deported for going awol from the Canadian military.  Sometimes fact is stranger than fiction!

EDIT: I see DB already got it.  Too slow to play music quiz these days!

[dragonboy]

Good man aMD! Got question for the troops?

[Crispy]

I would so have a drink with Mr. Cohen any day. I'd have several.

Who was Morrissey (supposedly) singing about in The Smiths song "William, it was really nothing"?

Since nobody came up with the answer and I was curious, I looked it up. The answer is Billy Mackenzie, lead singer of Associates - pretty interesting story there.
