The song "Asia Minor" was banned for a few weeks in England because the "powers that be" felt it made a "scandelous and inappropriate mockery" of a classical music piece.
Wow! How times have changed. This is especially interesting when you think of all the other pop songs that were take-offs of classical hits (B. Bumble and the Stingers, etc.)
Now, since you've done so well with this one, little boys and girls, let's try another. Who is the mystery man pictured above? He's another guy who had just one top 20 hit, this time in the 70's. The album his hit was on didn't even chart, but he did have an album on the chart (with others) that was #1 for over three months and on the charts for over a year.
Now those clues should give it away!
