Word Association Game


Recommended Posts

In Cardiff we have a circus company called the No Fit State Circus which has performed at Glastonbury from time to time. The son of one of my festival going friends is a performer with them.

It must be the meandering sort of mood I'm in tonight. But Milton made me think of Milton Keynes. And John Maynard Keynes was a big name economist. The other big name economist, from the second half of the 20th century was Milton Friedman (a influential free marketeer and not to everyone's taste).

And that let me to Dean Friedman (no relation as far as I'm aware) who had a minor hit with Lucky Stars - so pick either word.

Always had a soft spot for The Ruts. Maybe this was done already but always like hearing this track from the album.

Seventeen Seconds - A Forest (on speed)

Not a Cure fan per se and have no idea why I like this track but these 2 are the ones I turn to every time.

Can I cheat and slip in another 17? Great song by Janis Ian.

But to follow on from Seconds..... Boxing matches used to begin with the words "Seconds out". Last night I was watching a repeat of Top Gear on Dave and they had Alice Cooper as the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car. It reminded me of this so the follow on word is Out

Morning all, I think I've posted Milk and Alcohol by Dr Feelgood, so I'll go for Robert Johnson this time.

I'll take the link to MALT

I've not been posting for a bit, and I probably won't again here until next week, as my normal phone's not working and I've got a brick instead, and the work browser won't post links correctly (IE8). So, in the meantime, have a cracking weekend, and see you next week.

whisty, I'm missing some of the silver service for the van, but we're giving it a run out this weekend, so I'll get the butler to clean out the jacuzzi too.

Hi Carlos, you pipped me to posting Beck Milk & Honey,oh well! Fixed link for you. Have a nice trial run, van's sounding like somewhere I'd like to stay for the whole weekend now, jut one thing, I prefer a maid to a butler :)

Anyway, malt is sweet so I can still use Honey.

Doh beaten by Whisty again (the story of my life).

I was going to post Whiskey in the Jar by - two versions by Thin Lizzy and the Metallica version to see what we might be in for this year. But never mind you can hunt that out yourself if you're fussed.

Instead let's have Marvyn Gaye's take on a Taste of Honey

Another Buddy - Buddy Whittington

Yet another guitarist who's been through the John Mayall school of blues.Buddy now tours with his own band and is always worth catching.

Another Dick - Dick Dale.

Billed as the King of the Surf Guitar. You can pick up on the many bands and guitarists he influenced and the impact he had on guitar technology http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dick_Dale

Early years

Slightly differently spelled Wynton but someone else who's no slouch. You might want to skip the three minutes of waffle from Clapton at the start.

So the link word is Marsalis
