Driving Game (Part 58)

ExtraMedium shared some links said Tue, Jan 17th 2023 at 4:07pm ET

If you’re new to the Driving Game, you can just look back at the start of it all here in Part 1 for the full rules.

Please consider the kind folks who maintain our cheat sheet and add your post in the format of “Artist Name - Song Name” followed by a link to the song on the next line. That way they all look the same and it’s easier on the Cheat Sheet team when it’s time to update that list.

Speaking of the Cheat Sheet… The full history of our game, with links to each of the past threads, can be found on the Driving Game Cheat Sheet. Use that to avoid getting vetoed by a duplicate.

Have fun!

- To clear up the connection, Eric Clapton got his start playing guitar for The Yardbirds (as did Jeff Beck [RIP], and Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin) and he performed the middle break section of “For Your Love.”
  
  More trivia for you, he left the band over that song. He felt it wasn’t in line with the blues style of music the band was playing otherwise and its release drove his departure. Beck played his first gig with the Yardbirds only two days after Clapton’s departure.

- I hope this is close enough of a match? If you don’t know the story behind this song, it’s worth Googling, really powerful. And Steven Spielberg, of all people, directed the video.

  Next song matches a word but decidedly changes the tone. (Kind of weird having this going with blaineg’s “i have some questions”
  thread simultaneously.)
