Music Celebs Mixed Trivia Questions

1. Ella Fitzgerald was recognized at the Kennedy Center Honours in 1979. Which genre of music is Ms. Fitzgerald most famous for singing?

From Quiz
Kennedy Centre Honours for Musicians

Answer: Jazz

The Kennedy Center Honours were first awarded in 1978. Ella Fitzgerald was honoured a year later in 1979. When it came time for her to be recognized, Peggy Lee provided an overview of Ms. Fitzgerald's career that she narrated while a video of her career played in the background. Then, after the video montage, Count Basie and his band performed a live jazz piece in her honour. For the event, a reception was hosted at the White House by President and Mrs. Carter. Ms. Fitzgerald and the other honourees attended both the event at the theatre, and the after party at the White House. Other honourees for the year 1979 include Aaron Copland (composer and conductor), Henry Fonda (actor), Martha Graham (dancer and choreographer), and Tennessee Williams (playwright and screenwriter).

2. He was born February 5, 1954 and may be best remembered as the drummer for the band, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, yet his talents are many and varied. He has earned tremendous respect for his work as a musical composer. Who is this American Aquarian?

From Quiz Music Personalities Born In 1954

Answer: Cliff Martinez

Bronx (New York, USA) native, Cliff Martinez drummed for the bands Captain Beefheart, The Dickies, Lydia Lunch and The Weirdos before he joined the Red Hot Chili Peppers. It was as a part of RHCP that Martinez became a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2012. After he left RHCP he did scores for movies, television series and commercials. Do you remember the super-sexy Lincoln commercials that feature Matthew McConaughey? The music featured in those commercials is from Cliff Martinez.

3. Who was the left-handed player in the American grunge band Nirvana, which was active until Kurt Cobain's death in 1994?

From Quiz Musically Left, Not Right or Wrong

Answer: Kurt Cobain

Kurt was lead singer for the group as well as primary song writer. Heroin addiction, ill health and the pressures of a public life no doubt contributed to his early death, which was officially recorded as suicide. He was married to musician Courtney Love and they have a daughter.

4. Do you remember the rock band The Mamas and the Papas? There were rumors that one of the two female singers of the group choked to death on a ham sandwich. Since it wasn't Michelle Phillips, who was the subject of the rumor?

From Quiz Myths Behind Rock Music Legends

Answer: Cass Elliot

Cass Elliot, born Ellen Naomi Cohen, was significantly overweight at the time of her death. She did not die by choking on a ham sandwich. That was a rumor that started with her physician. There actually was a pork sandwich in the room but Cass hadn't eaten it. Any drugs that were present in the room (Cass did use drugs) had been cleared away before news of her death reached the media, and the autopsy found that there were no drugs in her system at the time. Cass Elliot died at age 32 due to what the coroner reported was "fatty myocardial degeneration due to obesity."

5. This singer from Michigan has sold millions of records and has drawn a lot of attention with her controversial music videos. She hit the charts with songs like "True Blue", "Like a Prayer" and "Vogue". Who is this singer?

From Quiz Musicians with One Word Name

7. Who famously appeared on an episode of "The A-Team" called "Cowboy George" in 1986?

From Quiz Pop Star Cameos On TV

Answer: Boy George

The episode features a bizarre plot involving George's band Culture Club filling in, controversially, for the eponymously named performer as part of a half-baked scam. As you can imagine, the other three options were selected purely because they too were called George.

8. Singer and songwriter Joni Mitchell is a native of which country?

From Quiz Musicians' Nationalities

Answer: Canada

Joni Mitchell was born Roberta Joan Anderson in 1943, in Alberta, Canada. Some of her more famous compositions include, "Chelsea Morning," from the 1969 album "Clouds".

Answer: Annette Funicello

It was Annette Funicello who was the performer that managed to take time out from "The Mickey Mouse Club" to have rock and roll success in the late 1950s with "Tall Paul", a 1958 hit which reached number seven on the Billboard Hot 100 charts in 1958 and "O Dio Mio" which reached number ten in 1960.

28. Who was the original drummer for the Eagles?

From Quiz Pop and Rock Music Celebrities

Answer: Don Henley

The Eagles were one of the most successful musical groups of the 1970s. The band formed in 1971 after Linda Ronstadt had played with a group of musicians in her band. She encouraged them to break out on their own, so members Glenn Frey (guitars, vocals), Don Henley (drums, vocals), Bernie Leadon (guitars, vocals), and Randy Meisner (bass guitar, vocals) came together and produced a number of very successful albums. Don Henley was the drummer and co-lead vocalist for the band from 1971 until they broke up in 1980, then again for their numerous reunions since. After the Eagles initially broke up in 1980, Henley pursued a solo career that was quite successful. Solo songs such as "Leather and Lace" (duet with Stevie Nicks), "Dirty Laundry", "The Boys of Summer" and "All She Wants to Do Is Dance" reached the top ten on the charts. Henley's musicianship has been rewarded with a number of Grammy Awards (both with the Eagles and as a solo artist), and the 2007 MusiCares Person of the Year award.
