Lena and Harry were right with my question. "Devil's Harvest" was the original title of "Satan's Harvest," the film Matt appeared in.

It wasn't Matts last single L&H, but as you say, it was Matts last hit record in 1973.

I think it's the question to my answer previously Marian.
It's not strictly what I was thinking which was that Matt appeared three times on the Tony Bennett Shows, but of course Paul's applies as well, so your turn Paul. :D :D

Marian from Kent -- That question was my answer. Remember in this game, the answers are the questions and the questions are the answers. :? It's easier for me since I've watched the TV show my entire life! :)

Marian from Reading -- Thanks for your leniency. I hope you and Peter enjoyed the Reading Festival last weekend. Since I didn't see you in the forum much on Friday, I was sure you were arranging the best possible seats to see your favourite bands. :wink: :lol:

Here's a really tough one. I'm looking for a very specific question. You may need several clues to get it correct. But first offer your best guess without any clues.

MATT MONROE

Sorry, John, but that's not correct. That would have been far too easy. I'm looking for a more specific question. Think about all the places where his name has been written incorrectly. Then come up with the correct "question".

Please keep guessing.
