    I can't believe John Deacon and John Paul Jones only got 1 each and that Lemmy got 3.

    By the way, Ronnie Wood and James Taylor (if it is the singer/songwriter) are not bassists!

    In my defence he (Ronnie Wood) is a bass player, he just happens to play guitar more frequently. (I may have forgotten that Bill Wyman existed :o But he wouldn't have scored any better as it turns out)

    Maz does it again. Gandhi isn't on the cover but no wrong answers in sheep.
