Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. "Everything You've Come to Expect" is the second album by The Last shadow Puppets and was released in 2016. Who is pictured dancing on the front cover?

Answer: Tina Turner

Mikala Schmitz (cello) and Caroline Buckman (violin) are members of the string section that accompanied The Last Shadow Puppets, along with Claudia Chopek (violin) and Jennifer Takamatsu (violin). Taylor Bagley is Alex Turner's ex-girlfriend.

2. "The Age of the Understatement" was The Last Shadow Puppets' first album, released in 2008. The Last Shadow Puppets are a supergroup that features two lead singers, Alex Turner and Miles Kane. With which two groups did these singers perform just before they teamed up together?

Answer: Arctic Monkeys and The Rascals

Simian is a group that The Last Shadow Puppets' drummer was in, and Mini Mansions is a group that the bassist was in. Little Flames was Miles Kane's previous (to the Rascals) group and played before the Arctic Monkeys on their 2005 UK tour.

Answer: Moonage Daydream

Both Turner and Kane have stated that David Bowie has had a great influence on their music.
Miles Kane does an excellent rendition of the guitar solo at the end of this song, at the end of the concerts at T in the Park and Rock en Seine that does justice to the memory and musical talent of not only David Bowie, but also Mick Ronson, Bowie's lead guitar player.

4. When touring in France at Rock en Seine (2016) The Last Shadow Puppets covered a French rock song. What was it?

Answer: Les Cactus

"Les Cactus" is a song by Jacques Dutronc released in 1976. He compares the world to a cactus upon which he has fallen and impaled himself. It's pretty funny.

5. Several of the videos from "The Age of the Understatement" and "Everything You've Come to Expect" as well as their third album "Dream Synopsis" have been nominated for and won various awards. In which video is a bride brought, in her wedding gown, to the beach where her husband intends to bury her, or possibly Miles and Alex, in the sand?

Answer: Aviation

In the video, Alex and Miles save the bride from her horrible fate.

Answer: Used to Be my Girl

Miles and Alex really lay it all out with their analysis and musical commentary of old girlfriends. This song is quite dramatic as a live performance, a real crowd pleaser. They have a chemistry onstage that one sees in many groups; for example, the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, Grateful Dead, etc.

7. Besides Miles Kane and Alex Turner, there are two other main band members in The Last Shadow Puppets. Who are they?

Answer: James Ford and Zach Dawes

James Ford is the drummer and Zach Dawes is the bass guitarist of The Last Shadow Puppets.
Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker were the bassist and drummer of Cream.
Tim Commerford and Brad Wilk are the bassist and drummer of Audioslave.
I have seen pictures of Jim and Spock jamming together...

8. In concert, The Last Shadow Puppets play a cover of a Beatles tune. What is it?

Answer: I Want You...She's so Heavy

Miles is on the lead guitar once again for the guitar solo on these two Beatles songs, and he totally rocks!

9. Where do The Last Shadow Puppets come from, in England?

Answer: Sheffield, South Yorkshire

Kingston upon Hull, usually abbreviated to Hull, is where Mick Ronson is from---he was David Bowie's lead guitar player when he first started and during the Ziggy Stardust era: another fabulous guitar master. Liverpool is where the Beatles and Abbey Road Studios are/were from.

10. Which of the following are NOT Arctic Monkey albums?

Answer: Coup De Grace

"Coup De Grace" is in fact Miles Kane's solo album from 2018. Alex Turner is the lead singer of The Arctic Monkeys, and they have released an album in 2022 entitled "The Car". Miles Kane, meanwhile, released a solo album in 2022 titled "Change the Show".

At the time this quiz was written, I'm hoping that Miles and Alex can find the time to collaborate again in the future on another Last Shadow Puppets album.
