I think I know Michelle Young Grass too... ;)

Yep. You got all those. There actually was a female prog singer who had a brief solo career and sang on a couple of the early Glass Hammer albums named Michelle Young but that's not who I had in mind here. Wink

Ok, I'm going to do a few more myself. Some of these are pretty difficult so if you get two or three that's good. ;)

Sun Fort
Detroit Boston?... could also be Chicago
Lava
Window Screwdriver
Sad the Woman
Arkansas Kansas?
Daytime Play
Michelle Young Grass
Your Welcome Professor
The Old Goats
Obvious Mussel
Sun Expedition
Fruit Juice 


Chicago and Kansas are both correct. Almost went with Missouri for Kansas since there is a Kansas City MO. Oh well.

I'll check back later and possibly give hints for the ones that haven't been done yet.

Ok, it's hint time for the rest.

The Old Goats - Italian band
Obvious Mussel - Danish band
Fruit Juice - Band with members originally from England 

All are 70's bands.

That was impossible to decide; it was either a feminization of the name or the changing from one female name to another; I chose the latter because I thought the feminization was the trap.

No, it could go either way. I was shooting for opposites there and since Mike is often thought of as the male version of Michelle I chose Michelle.

Correct on both counts. That wraps things up from me. Thanks for playing.

No-one guessed The Jocko Valley Yellowbellies yet? I thought they were a piece of cake.

The term Jacko is throwing me off. However, I'm going to guess Ozark Mountain Daredevils.

Yep. It is "Jocko", not "Jacko". Jocko Valley (look it up: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jocko_Valley) instead of Ozark Mountain.

Ok, Jocko. Well, it still threw me off and so did yellow belly which I had to look up. I have heard of the bird(woodpecker) called the yellow bellied sapsucker but I never heard it as a term to refer to cowardly before but I guess it makes sense.

No one has guessed The Glissandi. Should I reveal who it is?

I think I will. The Gissandi was The Tremeloes (originally The Tremoloes).
