Given the catchy title "Three for 3 for 3" This game involves the solving of one question, in 3 parts. Each part, in turn, has 3 answers. Each answer, in turn has 3 additional parts, ( 36 total answers) Hence the catchy name. Without further ado. Here is the question
Aside from Holiday Music, There are three unique and separate situations in which TWC has used the same song title, or same artist:
1) Find the only song that was used by the same artist, with three different versions of the same song. Each answer has three parts: a- artist b-album c-when song aired on TWC Hint: This artist released more than 3 CDs
2) Find the only song that was covered by three different artists, with the same main melody. Some knowledge of Classic TWC music (from the late 80s) may be required for the full answer. Again each answer will have three parts : a-artist, b- album where the song is from, c-when used on TWC
3) Find the only song that has the same title that was written by Three different artists, but were not covers, and each song has a different melody. Hint: None of these songs are re-titled, and one of the CD's one of the versions is from has to be purchased from the artist himself (that is, not available from conventional outlets). Once again, each answer will have 3 parts: this time a- artist, b- CD the song is from, c - when used on TWC.
Good luck! Don't rattle your brains too much
I will post the answer if by Next Sunday no one gets the entire riddle
-
I like this game.
But i don't know where to start! Plz help.
-
Start by treating each part separately. For example in the first part requires 3 versions of the same song used on TWC by the same artist. Not too many artists have written 3 versions of the same song, and have had all 3 versions used on TWC. Hint: searching the TWC playlists is a good start
-
"Swing Shift" by Chris Camozzi?
-
No thats not the answer Vic. the first part requires that you find three different versions (three separate songs) with the same title. For example...this is not an answer but just for the sake of example Ryan farish had 2 versions of Holding Faith used on TWC. The reprise was used in 2002 and the version from "Beautiful" used in 2004. Instead of 2 versions, the first part requires "Three" versions. Think of artists that released studio and live versions, and artists who released remixed version. Here is another Hint. Look thru late 2001/early 02 playlists. That might help.
-
"For You" by Brian Hughes?
i know they have the original version. 3rd force remix and the longer "LIve" version
-
Partially Correct victor. Now you need to get the other two parts to have answered the complete 3 for 3 for 3 riddle. The complete answer requires all parts listed in my first post
-
Was the song used in late 01/early 02?
-
if I tell you that takes away from the riddle. I cant tell you.....:P
-
i give up.
-
c'mon where is your researching spirit?...its not that hard, if you look at the TWC playlists carefully... anyone want a stab at my riddle?
-
I'll check later. As for time being. someone else take part in this game not just me! :P
-
Is the answer to the first part "Rainbow Seeker" by Joe Sample?
-
Is the answer to the first part "Rainbow Seeker" by Joe Sample?
i already got the 1st part it was "For You" by Brian Hughes
-
Sorry for the double post but my second guess would "The In Crowd". I know Jeff Lorber and Ramsey Lewis composed those songs. Not sure of the third
-
yeah but remember victor.. u need all the data, the CDs where the versions are at and when they were used on TWC.....
"The In Crowd" is incorrect, thats only two versions
-
1) For You by Brian Hughes
Shakin not Stirred
December 2001
2) (still looking)
3) Pacific Coast Highway
Jeff Lorber (Very Best Of Jeff Lorber, Mar 06), Eddie Reasoner (Special Weather, Aug 03), Nils (PCH, Nov 05)
-
Progress...not quite totally yet :D
-
Step 2 is confusing. Can u make that a little more clear regarding title and melody?
-
"For You" Brian Hughes
albums "Shakin Not Stirred" 12/01, "Straight to You" (3rd force remix) 1/02, "Live" 12/07

Is #2 Take Five?
Artists: Free Flight (Illumination, 1989), Acoustic Alchemy (Reference Point, Aug 1990), Dave Brubeck Quartet (Jazz:The Definitive Performances, Aug 2006)
That is what I thought as well but I could not find a Take Five for "Acoustic Alchemy".
-
Part 2 isnt Take Five. Nice try though...
NOTE; While its OK that you guys post some of the answer in parts.....as a draft.... The final answer to all 3 parts MUST be in ONE post. So even if you partially answer part 1 or 2 corretly... you can go back to your previous post(s) if you get the other part (s) correct and repost the final answer to all 3 parts, in a single post.
-
2) Find the only song that was covered by three different artists, with the same main melody. Some knowledge of Classic TWC music (from the late 80s) may be required for the full answer. Again each answer will have three parts : a-artist, b- album where the song is from, c-when used on TWC
Do they have the same title?
-
Yes victor they have the same title
-
Are you saying that one or more of the songs on question 2 played in the late 80's? I searched for all the songs on TWCC's late 80's playlists on Google and could not find a song there made by two other artists that was featured on TWC (other than Take Five). :unsure:
-
Yes. There is another song. While (actually) four versions of Take were used on TWC, including one by the Lenny Marcus Trio from Jazzaphrenia (used march or april of 04) There is one song that was covered by 3 artists only, which is why the riddle is called 3 for 3 for 3, including one of the covers from the 80s.....keep searching.. you will find it
-
One each from 80s, 90s and 00s?
-
1) For You by Brian Hughes
Shakin not Stirred
December 2001
2) Rainbow
Lee Ritnenour (Rio, 1988), Bob Thompson (Wilderness, 1989), Rippingtons (20th Anniversary, Dec 2007)
3) Pacific Coast Highway
Jeff Lorber (Very Best Of Jeff Lorber, Mar 06), Eddie Reasoner (Special Weather, Aug 03), Nils (PCH, Nov 05)
? :unsure:
-
very close Mike, very close....actually your answer to part 2 would be also an extension of part 3... I actually missed "Rainbow".... good find. However, like I said "Rainbow " would be a compliment to part 3. Part 2 requires the song have the same main melody, three covers written by 3 different artists however. "Rainbow" has three different melodies, and are therefore not covers, hence an extension of part 3 that I happen to miss
Dont forget, you have to list all three versions of "For You" and the CD's they are found on.
-
#2 has to be "Classical Gas" by...
Chet Atkins - 1986 or 1987
California Guitar Trio - June 2000
Roberto Perera - April 2002 (my favorite cover)
-
Ah, no matter why I couldn't find it. I used TWC Classics as my source and they only have playlists from as far back as 1988.
-
Update: I just noticed there was also a playlist section that had playlists issued by TWC. :doh:
So the final answer should probably be...
1) For You by Brian Hughes
(Original and 3rd Force remix from Shakin not Stirred, and Live version)
Used on December 2001
2) Classical Gas (Chet Atkins from Street Dreams on December 1986, California Guitar Trio from Pathways on June 2000, and Roberto Perera from Sensual on April 2002)
3) Pacific Coast Highway
Jeff Lorber (Very Best Of Jeff Lorber, Mar 06), Eddie Reasoner (Special Weather, Aug 03), Nils (PCH, Nov 05)
-
Sorry for the bump but is Mike correct? It looks right to me.
-
Here is One More Brain Scrambler.... Name Four (4) Artists, each of whom wrote two versions (two only) of their same song, and when both versions of each song were used on TWC. Again some knowledge of Classic TWC music may be required
