Subject: Rock n Roll 20 questions
Ask only questions that can be answered by "yes" "no" or "don't know." Number your questions. (Only one question per post, as the answer to one can lead to a different question being posed next). Subject will apply mostly to the 70s, although may overlap into other decades.
Okay, here goes:

Noooo.
With 20 questions you are not supposed to guess until sufficient questions have been asked to narrow it down. So even tho' this is question #4, I will pretend you didn't guess and we will proceed from #3.... ::)

Well now I feel stupid ! This is what I get for asking my sister, and then not checking the info given to me !
I didn't know she was born Anderson ! (do now though...) - my sister just told me she married Chuck Mitchell.
Totally forgot about the clue that she was (a) not a folk singer, and (b) husband was not a recording artist.
I'm crawling back under my rock now ! :-[ :-[ :-[
