The Cryptic Quiz.

Once called "Hammond's Folly" who is he? This record label had its own "house hippy" who spent a lot of time getting stoned in a barrel. He was the serious one in the band who had an acclaimed solo career but he inherited the fortune his mother made from "Liquid Paper" and quit the business. Their beginning was with the end of Garden Wall and The Anon after a school concert in July 1966. The Landmark Hotel, Hollywood. Not so much a landmark as an end for her. We would never have girated as much for Ernest Evans. By what name is he better known? A classic concept album based on The Amercan Civil War. He once replaced his sofas and chairs with rocks and held a gun to his manager's head in a vain attempt to stop the royalty cheques from arriving. He started on skins with Suzi and finished on junk with Nancy. He dropped his surname (Papathanasiou) and started working under his christian name. Due to their portrayal of a British prime minister on a promo postcard, they've never seen a penny in royalties from this song. Three brothers all had hits. Two used the family name. One had an international smash with his memories from "the backstreets of Naples". Which brother changed his name? One of the founder members of the band. He left because the manager thought he looked "too normal". Once the manager's girlfriend, she designed the band's clothes but only really found international acclaim in the '90s. Who is she? The house band when the important question was "Are you on the bus?" Much later, they got on the bus but it only came together "... when mum sang along". Who were they? He bought "The Great Beast's" house but it didn't stop his climb to heaven. His career came to public attention when his band got to Hollywood but according to the title of his "cult" album, we can't believe it. He used to be a critic until he discovered the formula to pop success and became a mega star. Once he had "The 1980 Floor Show" but he's now better known by some for his wall coverings.
