Enjoy,

9. Tragedy/Bee Gees

2. The Best of My Love ~ Eagles

6. Cat's In The Cradle - Harry Chapin ( I can name that song in 3 notes )

Great solves!

A tragic loss, jb

1. Oh Happy Day - Edwin Hawkins Singers

Good one, Lex!

7 - mother and child reunion - paul simon ?

Yup!

8. Tonight, I Celebrate My Love For You

Rog,

I say you start short and add length if nobody comes up with the answer. Either way I love these.

5. Car Wash

I like the intros that are just long enough to have the title right at the tip of my tongue and make my head spin around to get it.

Joan, Cue - great answers, and thanks for the feedback!

4. Delilah by Tom Jones

Yes, Manxman!

Even longer clues tomorrow

3. Had to be Jerry Lee Lewis, but I had not heard him do Me and Bobby McGee before.

I agree with SQF on length of extracts: these were a fraction longer than optimum for stage one in my (not so humble) opinion, but I also agree that it is always a great quiz in any event!

Was indeed, Lex. Terry Wogan used to play it a lot on his breakfast show and always referred to it as "hooligan music"

OK - number 10. You already have nearly all of the intro - have added just a smidgeon of the vocal...

not getting any vocal ?

It's only one word ("I") in the last half-second

10 has to be something by Elvis, but I was never a great fan (although did see him live in Las Vegas in 1971...).

Wow! (and correct)

Any real Elvis fans able to identify the track?

[That time in Vegas, Ike and Tina Turner with the very glamorous Ikettes were the other act we saw and quite something in a relatively small bar...]

OK - time's up.

It was Mess of the Blues ("I just got your letter baby/Too bad you can't come home")

Comments taken on board - will stick to the "short then longer" format but mebbe be a bit more generous woth the initial short clips
