*In 2017, a couple of incredible blues artists collaborated for the very first time and upon listening...all thought...what took so long? The album then went on to garner the Grammy for Best Contemporary Blues album that year. Name the two artists...
*A band that formed in New York City in 1965 had two members that moved on to another band 2 years later. One of those members actually started the new American band, cut the epic debut album and then split within the year due to 'creative differences' existing in the band at the time. Name the artist that founded the new band (can you name it?) and extra credit for the name of the musician that joined him... *Can you imagine that the Beatles created albums that sponsored negative, even hostile reviews. An album that was recorded, but not immediately released was turned over to Phil Spector to do some post-production additions, including strings. That alone, started the tirade of criticism. Name the Beatles album... *Imagine the resume as of 1977 of this artist...an incredible number of hits with 5 different bands (obviously short stints with each) and 4 rather epic solo albums. Those accomplishments all combined to create an album considered to be his 'magnus opus', something not lightly thrown out there casually. Name the artist and extra credit for the name of the 1977 release... BATTLE OF THE BANDS So Far Away by Dire Straits vs Refugee by Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. ANSWERS 1.

*This current artist has a comfort zone and its name is country soul. Mixing a bit of blues into the equation makes his music even more intriguing. On his 2023 album, it became a family affair as his wife joined in with some keyboard and harmony vocals. Yep, Happy Wife, Happy Life! Name the artist...
*Offering music that is carefree and relaxed, this artist on his 1994 album.emphasizes a strong connection to nature and a desire for simplicity...a kind of 'embracing the beauty of the moment' kind of vibe. In actuality that was something that came through in much of his musical portfolio and with his legion of fans that had their own name. Name the artist... *This band, originating in Georgia, took to Memphis with their 2004 album and this track in particular. The song recounts the celebrated Sun Records label and the 'Million Dollar Quartet', that included Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash and this artist whose name appears in the title of the song. The artist was the 1st of the 4 to sell a million records and received a nice gift as a result. Name the band and the 4th artist they sang about... *With his 2000 album, this incredible singer/songwriter/guitarist clearly stated his purpose for its release...to secure his own master recordings for these songs of his. As the artist had obviously aged, a number of the songs on the album dealt with aging, including the track we'll enjoy this evening. Name the legendary singer/songwriting artist...
