    A song from 1985 with a video featuring Donald Sutherland. A sample from this was used in the 1992 song by Utah Saints.
  3. I'm Shipping Up To Boston - Dropkick Murphys (Some Irish-American punk from Massachusetts - click the link and play loud )

    A haunting track from the late '70s. Sally is the sister of Mike Oldfield, who is probably best known for his 1973 album Tubular Bells.
  6. I'm Only Sleeping - The Beatles
  7. Bill Engvall (sorry - pinched that one from waikiki )
  8. I'm Gonna Hire a Wino to Decorate Our Home - David Frizzell (Only a country song could have a title like that )

    Zoolook - Jean-Michel Jarre From his experimental 4th studio album of 1984. The album uses samples of singing and speech from 25 languages - more info here.
  10. Sorry, I tried earlier. It's not on YouTube, or his MySpace (there's 6 other songs here in full), or any of the usual places I look. There's another similar sample available here. I did like his record company name - Deaf Jim - I'm assuming a parody of rap/hip-hop label DefJam. I'll keep looking and post a link if I do find anything.
  11. It looks like no-one's getting this one. The mechanic who worked on Black Tillie was called Skeeter. Q. Which cast member is a cousin of the Everly Brothers?.

    The county fair in the video looks fun. They've got cars, girls, plaid shirts and loads of mud .

    Daisy's Jeep

    This one seems to have taken ages. It's my own fault for starting 2 projects at once . It proved very hard getting good reference photos for this one because hardly any Jeep owners seem to keep their vehicles standard. I've tried to make it a stock CJ-7. Dixie kept changing, and trim such as wipers and mirrors disappear and reappear between shots. I've gone for a manual transmission version. I based the 'DIXIE' hood graphics on the Jeep at Cooter's because the photos I found online were much higher resolution than any screengrabs I could get - they are slightly different from the series (I think the Jeep at Cooter's is a CJ-5, not a CJ-7 - any Jeep experts can correct me if I'm wrong). The Jeep emblems have been left in place as that's how they appeared in earlier shows.
  15. I was wondering what the moderator online messages at the bottom of the screen were all about. Today it tells me you've all "Gone fishin'" . Thanks also for the Social Toolbar. It will act as a constant reminder that I should get a life .

    For those of you unfamiliar with Max Headroom, he was touted as a sophisticated, computer-generated character. In reality it was actor Matt Frewer in heavy make-up with some clever visual effects. Let's face it; computer graphics in the mid '80s just weren't up to the job. Now that would make an interesting trio .
  17. That must have been an easier one than I thought - points all 'round. Q. One more from 'Dukes Meet Cale Yarborough'. Name the mechanic who used to work on Black Tillie.
