The Old Grey Whistle Test Quiz Book

Bob Dylan. Tom Waits. Blondie. The Ramones. REM. The Who. Fleetwood Mac. Led Zeppelin. The list goes on and on. The Old Grey Whistle Testhas played host to some of the biggest names in music and has taken its rightful place at the pinnacle of rock history -- but how much of a fan are you? Do you know your Bowie backlist? Could your knowledge of Lennon lyrics stand up to scrutiny? And can you tell your gypsy jazz from your Memphis blues? This collection delves deep into the Whistle Test archives to pose over 3,000 questions on your favourite artists, from global megastars to obscure one-time guests on the show. Play in teams or test your own knowledge on questions covering a whole range of musical puzzles, from lost albums and banned songs to classic solos, one-hit wonders and more.
