Question of the week: Trivia
Hey, let's do trivia again. This one comes courtesy of Pete Johnson. That's his nom-de-blog, by the way. Anyway, Pete is a deep well of Roanoke music history knowledge, and he sent me some great questions. They might be tough. But hey, if you win, I'll give you a copy of Red Clay River's "Too Poor to Die."
Here's the stumper:
Name the record that was the only top 20 hit ever recorded in the Roanoke Valley. Name the artist or band that recorded it.
Pete's tough, but I'm easy, so I'm giving you a hint -- This song has been used repeatedly in pop culture: One use was in a Quentin Tarantino movie.
