Question(s):
1. How many Timmins' are in the Cowboy Junkies Band?
2. What are their names?
Angela100; Correctomundo! You win a cigar and 2/2 votes. BTW Peter Timmins is on drums, Michael on lead guitar (he also writes much of their music, and produces), and of course Margo is lead singer. Cheers Craig
1. Who did the soundtrack for the movie "Streets of Fire"?, and also played on the soundtrack?

2. Who played "Feelin'Bad Blues" from the movie "Crossroads"?
FYI; Ry Cooder did the soundtrack for the somewhat obscure movie "Streets of Fire", a rock and roll fable. Undertaker4 was on the right track. This movie starred Michael Pare', William Dafoe, and Amy Madigan. BTW, Amy Madigan also sang a great song on "Cross Roads".

The actual soundtrack of the movie is teriffic, and Ry Cooder also played background guitar throughout. The CD soundtrack did not capture Ry Cooders music though. If you can find it the movie its great-- may be sort of sophomoric-- but I loved it so much that I recorded the whole movie from VHS tape to CD and often listen to it on my big rig. You'd be amazed at what new "sounds" you pick up when not distracted by the video. David, as no one seems to have gotten this question, do I get the votes? :>) Cheers. Craig
Thanks David-- fun thread.

1. Enya's sister is lead singer for the group Clannad. What is her name?
Blbloom-- right on! The correct spelling is Mai're Brennan (pronounced moira). She also records under her own name. I have 4-5 of her CDs, she has a beautiful voice-- I especially like the Irish ballads. So, I'll give you votes! Craig
Angela100; seems we were posting at the same time. But either way I think you are correct. "The Trinity Session" just lists three, but on the Studio Sessions, John Timmins is listed as 'back-up vocals'. But I don't think John is a "regular" or full time band member. Either way you get the cigar IMO, and the votes. Cheers. Craig
