I guess Billy Ray kinda scuppered that idea I'm doing the same type of quiz with work colleagues in a WhatsApp group which is where I came across the Kurt Cobain video. Prior to that I hadn't the foggiest notion that he was a lefty - never having watched any Nirvana. A wee bit of research chucked up loads more - YouTube was a big help. But when someone posted Dolly Parton I had to watch a few clips of backing bands to see whether or not I could give it an aye or nay!

Respect for watching Dolly vids Your original list were Brummies,then someone correctly guessed Purple Haze, so I (wrongly)thought - same song title , different song by someone else -eg Purple Haze ; Hendrix/Cure.
