Short lists

Songs by Bob Dylan and AC/DC which had the same title

1. Shot of love (points to EKTWP)
2. Baby, please don't go (double points EKTWP for most obscure one of all time)
3. Are you ready (Bob Dylan, AC/DC).

Next list: Soviet leaders against whom a coup d'état was mounted while they were on holiday at a Black Sea resort.

Kruschev,Gorbachev.You'd think Gorbachev would have thought twice about going on holiday there.

Mark Wadsworth said...

DBC, spot on. Can you think of any more ideas for 'short lists' (ideally with two instances)?

DBC Reed said...

How about:
Two products giving solace to the working-man which owe(d) their origins to the Land Tax movement?
Or: Two big box-office American film stars who got into trouble for Communist Party membership

DBC, I'll do the first one, can you email me the answers?
