Well, I believe it was Little Boy Blue and the 'Blue' Boys so in a literal sense, it would be Fiction ? Congratulations John! Youre Up!

Luther Perkins was an original member of the Tennessee Two and later the Tennessee Three until his sad passing in a house fire in August of 1968. His cousin Carl Perkins joined the Johnny Cash touring troupe in 1968, essentially replacing Luther, and performed with them for a decade.
Fact of Fiction ?

A real informed guess, but sorry, no Martin.
Carl perkins did join the Johnny Cash troupe in 1968 but he was not Luther Perkins' cousin.
The Kinks had more Top 10 hits on the US Billboard Hot 100 pop charts than the Who, Neil Young (solo), and Led Zeppelin combined!
Fact or Fiction ?

I have a general idea of when Mick Jones left the Clash but I'd be guessing on this. This sounds like one that Sleepy should tackle !

Sorry John - I saw your post this morning and meant to take a guess after thinking about Uncleson's query a little. Unfortunately it took me longer then expeced to get ready to go out this morning, and I didn't get chance But of course I don't mind you taking a guess! I'm not too sure of the answer if I'm honest but I'd probably have chosen 'Fact' too

After trying other names including "Johnny and the Moondogs", "Long John and The Beetles" and "The Silver Beatles", the band finally became "The Beatles".
