MUSIC QUIZ FROM LOONEY’S TUNES SHOW Mar 30, 2025 #309

*For much of this group's early years, they were 3 regular members strong.  Their 18th album came much later in 1994.  By then, they were a duo and had not had a hit on the music charts in over a decade.  You loved them in the early 70's and as it turns out...for decades later.  Name the band...
 
*2021 was a huge coming out party for us all, but particularly for artists deeply impacted by Covid.  One such artist had an album ready to go just prior to the pandemic, but serious personal impediments for the next 3 years forced this solo album out to 2021.  We loved his music as part of a monster band, but his solo work was equally entertaining.  Name the artist...
 
*Coming off the mega-success of his 1984 album, this artist could have easily turned out another ten rock & roll anthems and continued down that lucrative road endlessly.  Instead, he turned inward with an album that delved into the deepest crevices of one of the most mysterious and terrifying places on earth: the human heart.  Granted, the artist was suffering from marital problems at the time and this track creates the feeling he realized when the person he loved the most became the person he least trusted.  Name the artist and extra credit for the name of the excellent 1987 track...
 
*Early on in her career, this singer/songwriter was marketed as a country artist, but strangely, it took ten albums before she would venture into any Nashville recording studio.  We'll dip into her 2004 album of new material with a simply excellent supporting cast of musicians pitching in.  Name the artist...
