Is there an alternate sort of wonderment with "Louie, Louie", PDQ Bach, and "Purple People Eater"? Howard C. Berkowitz 18:10, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
I've never heard of the "Wonders of the musical world", but I guess I could add it. Can you link to somewhere where I could get more information about it?
Personally I think any list that excludes the talents of more modern, popular artists such as Slash, Van Halen, and Jimi Hendrix isn't worth much weight. :) Drew R. Smith 07:16, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
I can't give a link; indeed I couldn't find this in a Google search & had to dig out & search through the printed back issues to find the reference. The page numbers I put on Wikinfo if that's any improvement.
Time will tell whether the other things you mentioned will survive. Peter Jackson 09:45, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
