    Triumph was a great band that never got as big as they should have. Use to play them loud when I was cruising!

    How 'bout an '80's group called Split Enz. They did a cool sounding song called "I Got You" ,which may be one of those one hit wonders.

    Some tunes I like to listen to once in a while are from the mid '60's. I even found and downloaded some of these and transfered to a CD;

    "She's About A Mover" -Sir Douglas Quintet
    "Liar,Liar" -The Castaways
    "Little Things that you do" -Bobby Goldsboro
    "You've Got Your Troubles" -The Fortunes
    "Music To Watch Girls By" -Andy Williams
    "Gimme Some Lovin" stereo version -Spencer Davis Group
    "So Happy Together" -The Turtles
    "Desiree" -The Left Banke
    "She" The Monkees
    "Hold On,I'm Comin" -Wilson Pickett
    "Stormy" -Classics IV

    Man there are dozens more....

    Split Enz was a New Zealand group who had a number of big hits mainly here in NZ and in Australia. The Finn brothers from Split Enz still perform occasionally and to sell out crowds.

    I like your list as well, I am a big fan of the sixties music, it was a great era to grow up in with the cool music and of course the cars.

    A couple that spring to mind are:

    A Whiter Shade of Pale by Procol Harum

    The Weight by The Band

    Lots and lots more. :TU:

    Sorry to be late to the party but I just discovered this thread. I thought I was the only one that rememberd Smokey Places. Just started High School that year and went to a couple of "Coffee Houses" (No, not Starbucks!! :Dou: )......

    Meeting in smokey plaaa-ces
    Hiding in shadowy corrrr-ners
    Dancing where no one knows our faaaa-ces
    Sharing love stolen in the night, Da, Da, Da, la, la, la......:bglasses:

    Sorry, again. I digress. It's really great remembering the old ones. I guess I'm just a sentimental old man. :ball:

    "Shiela Ann" by Bobby Skel on UNI Records.

    Here are a few lines from the song:

    "Eyes that speak yet never make a sound,
    golden hair that gently tumbles down,
    feelings that I can start to understand,
    when I touch the hand of Sheila Ann".
