Here's a reminder that track #17 still needs an answer. One exclusive karma point goes to the OMer who provides the correct answer.

Robert, I've got no idea at all. Sounds like a bit of a dirge to me...............

Robert Bruce · December 03, 2011, 11:56:08 AM

Mr V, a dirge? Oh dear! This is a track written by one of the world's most eminent award-winning musicians. I am certain you have heard and enjoyed his music many, many times over the years.

In the age of heavy metal like Black Sabbath, Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin, this musician was a complete breath of fresh air. Let's just say that I reckon that you and Mrs V have danced to music of his genre.

It looks as if nobody will get the answer to #17. Here is the answer:

It is the brilliant Latin/Rock musician Mr. Carlos Santana and the track is called "Europa"

Here is the track played live in concert http://tinyurl.com/3egqhwn

Well then, here is your next MP3 challenge - who sings this and what is the track's title?

The answer to #55 is:"Confusion" by ELO (Electric Light Orchestra) written by Jeff Lynne.

Roy Wood was a founder member of the band and after leaving ELO he had a huge Xmas hit called "I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday" with his own band Wizzard.
