Description
A 26 part series based on song titles.
To log a find you need to list a song starting with the letter Q
BUT THAT'S NOT ALL
You need a photo of something relevant to the song title. For example - for B, the song could be Blowing in the Wind by Bob Dylan. Your photo could be of wind/someone blowing/anything blowing etc. Loose interpretations and humour are welcome. Photos don't have to be recent but do have to be taken by you or of you (not off the net).
Same songs can be logged by different cachers.
The artist(s) does not have to start with the same letter.

My first choice here was Quarter to Three by The Boss but that's been done a few times so will go with the lesser known Quizz Kid by Jethro Tull.
Our grandson was the model for this one but doesn't look too impressed.
Thanks.

Queen of the Supermarket. Bruce Springsteen. 2009. Did you know there was such a song? Some Springsteen die-hards probably wish there wasn't as in some circles this is referred to as the worst Springsteen....ever. Not sure about that, but I'm happy to use it as a Q song!!
Thanks for another one geono.

Q is for
"Quarter to Three" is a popular song, adapted and expanded from "A Night with Daddy 'G' – Part 1" (Legrand LEG 1004), an instrumental by the Church Street Five, which was written by Gene Barge, Frank Guida and Joseph Royster, and sung by Gary U.S. Bonds. The song became a number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States on June 26, 1961, and remained there for two weeks.
The 45rpm single of "A Night with Daddy 'G'" identifies the composers by their last names only – Barge, Guida, Royster – and identifies the music publisher as Pepe Music (BMI). The Legrand Records 45 release of the vocal "Quarter to Three" version adds "Anderson" to the author credits, since that was Bonds' birthname and he supplied the vocal arrangement.
The single was recorded with very rough sound quality (compared to other records at the time). Producer Frank Guida has been quoted on subsequent CD reissues that his production sound was exactly what he wanted it to sound like. Noted British producer and columnist Jack Good felt compelled to devote his entire Disc magazine column to praising the "fuzzy, muzzy, and distorted" sound of the U.S. Bonds hit release. The article was subtitled "This record could never have been made in Britain". There have been books written, such as those of the series Rock On: The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Rock N' Roll by Norm N. Nite, that have stated that this record was recorded "accidentally" (that no one knew the tape recorder was on at a session).
Members of the Church Street Five (otherwise known as Gene Barge's band) played on this and all of the other Legrand and S.P.Q.R releases, including Jimmy Soul's sides. Members of this group included Ron "Junior" Farley on bass, Willie Burnell on piano, Leonard Barks on trombone, and Emmet Shields on drums. Eric Shauls and Wayne Beckner also played guitar on this record and various other records produced by Frank Guida (Earl Swanson played the sax solo on this side as well).
The UK release on Top Rank International JAR 575 reached number 7 in the UK chart on September 2, 1961. In this release and the original release in the United States, the record's B-side is "Time Ole Story" (Beckner).
Dion DiMucci stated that "Quarter to Three" was the inspiration for his hit "Runaround Sue", which was written by Dion and Ernie Maresca and which also peaked at #1 on the Hot 100.[citation needed]
Bill Wyman of the Rolling Stones included the song on his 1976 solo album Stone Alone.
The song was sung regularly by Bruce Springsteen as a show closer on the Born to Run tours and the Darkness Tour appearing on the Hammersmith Odeon London '75 concert document and, as performed in 1979, the No Nukes film.
Clarence Clemons performed the song with Ringo Starr & His All-Starr Band in 1989. His recording of the song appears on the album "A Night with Mr.C" released in 1989.
"Quarter to Three" appears on The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll list.
The melody from "Dear Future Husband", a 2015 hit by Meghan Trainor, is inspired by the melodies from both "Quarter to Three" and "Runaround Sue".

Quinn The Eskimo by Manfred Mann
Album: Mighty Quinn (1968)
This was written by Bob Dylan, but Manfred Mann was the first to record it.
Manfred Mann, a British group named after their keyboard player, took Dylan's "Just Like A Woman" to #10 in the UK with their 1966 cover and was known in America for their #1 hit "Do Wah Diddy Diddy" from 1964.
It was rare for Dylan to let anyone record one of his songs before he did, but "Quinn The Eskimo" was an exception. Mike D'Abo of Manfred Mann explained how it happened. "We met in a publisher's house as Bob Dylan was making some new material available to other artists," D'Abo said. "We heard about 10 songs and I thought 'This Wheel's On Fire' would be the one to do, but Manfred liked The Mighty Quinn, which was called 'Quinn The Eskimo' then. It was sung in a rambling monotone but Manfred had recognized its potential. He sold me on the idea of doing this song, but I had to make up some of the words as I couldn't make out everything he was saying. It was like learning a song phonetically in a foreign language. I have never had the first idea what the song is about except that it seems to be 'Hey, gang, gather round, something exciting is going to happen 'cause the big man's coming.' As to who the big man is and why he is an Eskimo, I don't know." (from 1000 UK #1 Hits by Jon Kutner and Spencer Leigh)
I love this song. They don't play it very often these days, not even on CLASSIC HITS GOLD 104.3
Prefabricated igloo - some assembly required...
Thanks for the musical cache geono.
Lyrics:
Everybody's building the big ships and the boats
Some are building monuments
Others jotting down notes
Ev'rybody's in despair
Every girl and boy
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Ev'rybody jumps for joy
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn
I like to do just like the rest
I like my sugar sweet
But guarding fumes and making haste
It ain't my cup of meat
Everybody's just standin' around 'neath the trees
Feeding pigeons on a limb
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Then pigeons will go to him
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn
Now, let me take credit due
I can recite them all
Just tell me where it hurts you
And I'll tell you who to call
Nobody can get any sleep
There's someone on everybody's toes
When Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Ev'rybody's gonna doze
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn
