Musicians who have all played with the Beatles. Or maybe who all played live with them.

Or maybe who all played with them on the album Let It Be, or maybe its more specific: the song All You Need is Love, from Let It Be.

Off the top of my head that's the best I can do. Not gonna google it.

You don't have to, that's close enough. Musicians who performed uncredited on Beatles albums.

I was afraid that the first real Beatles fan that wandered in would get it, but was hoping that Brian Jones might throw a few people off, because very few fans know he sat in on some early Beatles sessions. Most people know Clapton did the guitar solo on "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" (and John Lennon even proposed him for membership when George Harrison stormed off and said he was quitting the  band), Billy Preston played on so many Beatles' songs he was nicknamed "The 5th Beatle", and I think a fair number of people know that Donovan sang on "Yellow Submarine", but I've never met anyone who knows that Brian Jones played saxophone on "You Know My Name (Look  Up The Number)". Good job!

Dreamer, it's your turn to post a quartet.




dreamerdreaming -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (4/18/2009 11:27:47 PM)

[:D] (Note: I will not be back until later Sunday to confirm the answer)

What do these four things have in common?

Imbrium
Crisium
Smythii
Serenitatis


ETA: OMG I never made it back here after my last quartet!

Avocado
Honeydew melon
Lime
Grapes

Shivermetimbers got it right, yay! [:)] They are all green fruit.

Actually honeydew rind is yellow, but the fruit part on the inside is green. That was supposed to be an easy one, whereas the one above is meant to be more difficult.

dcnovice, thanks for the fun game!

Every one of my quartets is about something I like.




intenze -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (4/19/2009 6:24:26 AM)

They are on the moon...craters?




dreamerdreaming -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (4/19/2009 7:15:10 AM)

[:)]    YES! You got it, Intenze!  They are all specifically: large impact basins on the moon. They are properly referred to with "Mare", meaning sea, in front of each. For example Mare Serenitatis is the "sea of serenity".

Take it away, Intenze. What's the next quartet?
