OK so we need a question from K for Elvis, aMD for The Flaming Lips & Bam Bam for Yes (I'm presuming that's the right answer?)

I think it was Thriller once, then I think it was an Eagles Greatest Hits comp but I think it might be a Garth Brooks Best Of now?

I'm gonna go with Garth Brooks, hope I'm wrong :)

I know Dark Side was the best selling UK album of all time, or at least it used to be.

Nope. Think shittier.

actually, I think Hanna Montana passed them all just this week. :o

DB's garth brooks response made me do some research. I was thinking of the best selling record in the US, I guess I should be asking worldwide since this is an international forum. either way, nobody has guessed it yet.

dragonboy · Feb 18, 2008, 07:33 PM

Haha, the sort of question that causes lots of fights & disputes ;)

Do you seriously hate The Eagles? I sometimes wonder when people say that if it's just out of respect for the Dude. I have all of their studio albums (except for The Long Run) & never grow tired of hearing Hotel California (the song & the album!)

dragonboy · Feb 18, 2008, 08:00 PM

Cool !!! 8-)

aMD · Feb 18, 2008, 08:06 PM

Yes I hate the eagles. They're not completely awful but I NEVER find myself thinking, "I'd love to hear some eagles right now". I said in reference to the dude but i have always thought they were awful.

This one still needs an answer:

Which artist/band's manager said this regarding why he/she/they didn't play?
"We were asked to do Woodstock and (name of record label) were very keen, and so was our US promoter, Frank Barcelona. I said no because at Woodstock we'd have just been another band on the bill."

C'mon! Nobody ever heard of Frank Barcelona?!! ;)

Wrong answers so far: Rolling Stones & The Kinks
