For each song, name the artist who is best known for performing it, and for the two songs for which it's not obvious ("The Long Cut" and "The Sheltering Sky"), identify the connection between the artist and the city the post was about. Also, one of the songs ("Pittsburgh Town") was written by an artist who is more famous than the song's best known performer. So, for that one, I'm looking for both performer and composer. In all, this makes it a 10-part question.
As a reminder, here is the list of posts/songs again:
- Look Out Cleveland
- Cleveland Rocks
- Detroit Rock City
- Meet Me in St. Louis, Louis
- The Long Cut
- The Sheltering Sky
- Pittsburgh Town

The favorite wins! Lee correctly answers all ten parts:
ReplyDelete"Look Out Cleveland" - The Band
"Cleveland Rocks" - Ian Hunter
"Detroit Rock City" - Kiss
"Meet Me in St. Louis, Louis" - Judy Garland
"The Long Cut" - Uncle Tupelo (from the St. Louis suburb of Belleville, Illinois)
"The Sheltering Sky" - King Crimson (singer Adrian Belew from the Cincinnati suburb of Covington, Kentucky)
"Pittsburgh Town" - Pete Seeger (written by Woody Guthrie)
Nice job, Lee. I wonder if anyone else had a chance to even think it over.
