RESULTS & ANSWER KEY for Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz #424 (GOLQ424)
Congratulations to Delphi Trivia Club and Village Idiots, who tied for first
place. Just behind by one song were Tri State Trivia and Will McCorry. Also,
fine performances by Mike Weaver, the EJ's, and RRiB. Mike and the EJs were
the only ones to get #T1, while #T2 stumped everyone.
As to my recurring RIP theme, Mike coined an abbreviation to describe those
artists likely to be used: DSHLQ ("Died Since Howard's Last Quiz").
Each of the DSHLQs herein is described further below.
The Solution to Bob's Puzzler can be found at the end. Kudos to Will McCorry,
who was the only entrant to solve it.
As always, thanks to everyone who entered.
The June 2022 quiz (GOLQ #425) by Mike Weaver will be posted soon.
-- Howard Teitelbaum

GOLDEN OLDIES LYRICS QUIZ #424 ANSWERS:
Answers are in the form:
#number) Artist: "Title" (chart year) [peak Pop] {peak R&B} <xxx>...<yyy>
where:
"peak Pop" = Peak position achieved on the weekly Billboard Pop chart.
"peak R&B" = Peak position on the weekly Billboard Rhythm & Blues chart.
(Billboard didn't publish an R&B chart between 11/30/63 and 1/23/65,
so recordings in that interval show peak R&B of {n/c} ("no chart").)
"xxx",...,"yyy" = prior GOLQ(s) in which the song appeared, if any.
