It seems Cozy Powell and Pat Smear hold the entire music world of degrees in their hands. I've tried several oddball pairs, and they almost always appear in there somewhere.

Err yeah - certainly seems to be a bit lacking in depth of database at the moment.

I love that it has Johnny Marr & The Healers but not the Smiths.

― Alba (Alba), Saturday, 5 February 2005 00:28 (twenty-one years ago)

I just tried to see how close I was to Paul McCartney, by choosing the Beatles and a band I actually know someone in. 18 steps. I think I'm better off going through my mum and dad's friend, who designed a kitchen for him in the 60s.

― Alba (Alba), Saturday, 5 February 2005 00:32 (twenty-one years ago)

Ah, I see. The Smiths are listed under T.

That's not so ridiculous.

Apparently the record is 32 steps. Can anyone beat that?

― Alba (Alba), Saturday, 5 February 2005 00:48 (twenty-one years ago)

Nope. Chic to Fugazi is only 9 degrees!

― Pete Scholtes, Tuesday, 8 February 2005 00:38 (twenty-one years ago)

Can to Pantera didn't work

― chris andrews (fraew), Tuesday, 8 February 2005 00:42 (twenty-one years ago)

Napalm Death to T. Rex in 15.
The midway point is Martin Atkins.

― Snappy (sexyDancer), Tuesday, 8 February 2005 00:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Betales to Cop Shoot Cop in 16.
We can blame Mike Patton.

― Snappy (sexyDancer), Tuesday, 8 February 2005 01:04 (twenty-one years ago)

Beatles, that is.

― Snappy (sexyDancer), Tuesday, 8 February 2005 01:23 (twenty-one years ago)

Napalm Death to Moondog in 6 -- but they cheated like fuck.

First class eater of time. I couldn't break it or beat the 32 step record. Cozy Powell, Al Pitrelli, Brian Baker, or Lou Koller always steps in for the assist.

SOD to Royal Trux
Curved Air to Cynic
Bad Brains to Alcatrazz

Good times.

― Ian Christe (Ian Christe), Tuesday, 8 February 2005 01:54 (twenty-one years ago)

three weeks pass...

Has anyone figured out the longest chain? or broken 20?

― Matt Sab (Matt Sab), Monday, 7 March 2005 18:03 (twenty years ago)

I couldn't break 20. Nearest I got was 18:

Joy Division to Ladies Who Lunch: 18

Buffalo Springfield to Cibo Matto: 18

Cibo Matto to Pure Prairie League: 17

Team Dresch to Steely Dan: 17

P-Funk All-Stars to Joy Division: 15

P-Funk All-Stars to Sixpence None the Richer: 16

Whitesnake to Chisel: 12

But there are some possibilities for amusing juvenile humor: Anal Cunt to Pussy Galore, etc.

― The Mad Puffin (The Mad Puffin), Monday, 7 March 2005 19:24 (twenty years ago)

my new best: 23

Crazy Horse to CCRevisited

― Matt Sab (Matt Sab), Monday, 7 March 2005 19:42 (twenty years ago)

Woo hoo, I got 21: Army Of Ponch to Joy Division.

― The Mad Puffin (The Mad Puffin), Tuesday, 8 March 2005 17:38 (twenty years ago)
