MUSIC QUIZ FROM LOONEY’S TUNES SHOW May 25, 2025 #316

*In 1987 this group became arguably the first rock and pop act to reach an unbroken quarter century in the music business.  Here they were after 25 years with 27 studio albums to show for it and while they hadn't been as prolific leading up to 1987, they certainly still had an excellent legion of fans.  Name the band....

*1994 saw the release of this group's 18th album, sounding every bit as great as their previous releases.  Pretty amazing as the group had not had a hit on the music charts in over a decade.  And their sound was still fresh and familiar despite a reduced personnel situation.  Name the group...

*Soul had been at the foundation of this duo's sound throughout their career together, so it was appropriate and timely that they cut their own soul tribute album in 2004.  Name the group...

*In 1972 this artist released the first song he ever wrote.  In his teens, the artist was an avid listener to music but it was only when he put his first group together at the age of 19, that he realized he should start writing music. That song, and many others he would go on to write, was inspired by a high school relationship that didn't work out in 1966.  Name the artist and extra credit for the name of the song...
