Stating the obvious indeed SMH

Well, Outstrip, the example of this great woman is not so obvious. She refused the bus driver's order to give up her seat in order to make room for a white passenger. She was put in prison for that!. Her act of defiance sparked the U.S. civil rights movement.

Rosa Parks, "the first lady of civil rights", and "the mother of the freedom movement" (1913-2005). May she rest in peace

Stating the obvious indeed SMH

Give me a list your "obvious equivalents", Outstrip, (from post # 15 onwards) and I will "shake my head", (and probably laugh, "indeed"!).

What I was thinking of?. How could I leave Memphis Minnie (1897-1973) out of this list?. "The queen of the Delta Blues". May she rest in peace.

Her classic "When the Levee Breaks" was "obviously" covered by Led Zeppelin, "indeed", and inspired Bob Dylan's "The Levee's Gonna Break". "Stating the obvious, indeed".

Damn is it me or is someone talking to themselves

Wow!. How could I forget this two great artists?. What was I thinking of?

1) "The Queen of the delta Blues", Memphis Minnie (1897-1973). Led Zeppelin's version of
Memphis Minnie's "When the levee breaks" is the perfect finale for the band's masterpiece "Led Zeppelin VI".

2) Etta James (1939-), the first Lady hired by Chess Records, also the recording label of:
Chuck Berry (The man who invented rock and roll).
Big Bill Broonzy
Bo Diddley
Willie Dixon
Muddy Waters (The King of Chicago Blues).

The music of these artists was revered (and probably is still adored) by many young Britons. Some of them would eventually become very famous: The Beatles, Eric Clapton, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Led Zeppelin, among others.

More fails.

The witch of Brooklyn lol,

shotster50 you are very annoying and that's just putting it mildly. Do you want pictures of Nigerians doing the same things if not worse or do you think it does not exist? Please stop making a fool of yourself

@ Outstrip,
I really do think you have a problem.

@ All these fake NL feminists, if only you put all that passion into your cooking .

The only thing that you will eat out of my kitchen will be cyanide

Going into your kitchen will be akin to walking into a slaughterhouse. I cant fit.

And in other news,
