Would never have got it without McGoved’s hint.

Chain? 10 lb something or other....

Not Chain no. These guys were Prog Rock, in the vein of Traffic, Blackfeather etc ,… but you’re on the right track with the song title. it was something (pound) lb something.

That sounds like it would be 10 lb toothbrush by Madder Lake. Apologies Ms Ellie, didn't see your post.
  1. The Birthday Party - Nick The Stripper
  1. Midnight Oil, but can’t recall the song title.

Yes Jack. The Oils it is.

Two Aussie songs left, that & No 14, …, from a solo Male artist.

And 2 Yank songs, No 20 by arguably their biggest modern day band, the other, No 2, from a solo Female artist, who was quite big to begin with, and then (like Morrisette, at Q1), faded a bit from view over the next decade.

All still kicking & touring… including of course The Oils, who have reformed & are touring in '17.

Just in case anyone didn’t know yet?

  1. Midnight Oil - Basement Flat

Once I knew who the band was, cheers CJ.

I was going the unwritten rule of only doing three max, but if no one else knows that 20 is I’ll Stick Around by Foo Fighters then I’ll claim that one as well.

Clue time…

The writer of No 2 must have been super thirsty at the time of it’s conception.

And No 14 paints a picture of a dark past .

I’m back from my trip to Melbourne and ready to go with the quiz again…I’ve spoken with BD and he’s fine with me assuming the quiz master mantle.
