Oh! I Always Get Those Two Mixed Up!

Lee J Cobb
Rod Steiger

I think I have a real Rod Steiger problem - I am sure I posted Rod Steiger/Roy Scheider upthread

Starting Over (1979: Burt Reynolds, Jill Clayburgh, Candice Bergen), It's My Turn (1980: Jill Clayburgh, Michael Douglas, Charles Grodin), Best Friends (1982: Burt Reynolds, Goldie Hawn).

Joe McPhee
Joe Henderson

Eddie Henderson somewhat but not as much as the two Joes.

Lorde
Grimes

Robert McNamara
Donald Rumsfeld

More of a visual thing than a person, but people on my FB timeline keep posting the new album by The Bug ('Fire').

It turns out, when scrolling past it quickly, that the artwork is virtually identical to late 90s hard house banger 'Yomanda - Synth & Strings' on Manifesto.

Diadochi
Dioscuri

Paul Johnson (Get Get Down)
Paul Simpson (Musical Freedom)

Drivin N Cryin
Sniff 'n' the Tears

Dave Simpson
Dave Haslam

Lucian Freud
Francis Bacon

you couldn't get their work mixed up though: Bacon the nightmare distorted face man and Freud the pubic hair and skin specialist!

I looked at the Bacon on this week’s University Challenge and said “Freud” at my TV. Can’t explain it, it happens all the time.

I think they were acquaintances in the 40's/50's bohemian set in London

That’s right - they painted pictures of each other too.

I can't remember what the Bacon one looked like. but I recall the Freud one as very stylised and quite unlike intense painterly flesh that became his signature style.

I know this is absurd, but I just confused KMD, Young Black Teenagers, and Urban Dance Squad

it's weird to me that there are two famous blonde New Yorkers named Lindsay Crouse

Tompkins Square Records
Chatham Square Productions

xp and to make it even more confusing, the one who's a journalist is not the one who's the sister of journalist Timothy Crouse.

Dorothy Parker
Dorothy Sayers

Cost me a question on University Challenge the other day...

I don't really confuse these, just trying to pitch some lyrics to Plastic Fantastic if they're still going.
