Music and Chart Trivia         The Name Game #2 (Original Group or Act Names)        Sixties Quizzes        Before They Were Famous (Artists' Original Occupations)


Here's a bit of a quiz for you, or try it on your friends. They were all musical artists or superstars of the Sixties scene and are still (mostly) household names,
but what did their mums and dads call them? They changed their names for many reasons - for instance.....


Florence Bisenta De Casilles Martinez Cardona,   Concetta Rosa Maria Franconero,  Virginia Patterson Hensley,   Benjamin Franklin Peay  and  Robert Higginbotham

.....don't exactly trip off the tongue, do they? How many of these 150+ stars do you know or can guess at?
