Right you are, Brian. Davis is one of the great under-rated players of all time.
Tell me this: Who are the Silver Wilburys?

Good job, Aitch!
I have a bootleg of that show in my "recently played" list. It was one of those crazy Hollywood nights somewhere...

I thought it was named after their producers (Chips Moman) car. He had an MG.

There are two different accounts of it and I don't think that there is one definitive answer as to exactly what it means.

I would have thought if they named themselves after the car, the band would have been called "The Limey Lemons"... kind of a counterpoint to "Green Onions"

In 1986, 3 different female artists were in the top 3 places of the U.S. charts. Name them and their songs that charted for them.
