    No Rain by Blind Melon, one of the best hippie bands around in the 90's that was short lived.

    Venus; Shocking Blue

    Can't find these on itunes, so maybe they were never hits, but are on youtube.

    Peter and Gordon had several hits (10) including Go to Pieces written by Del Shannon. There were two other hits written by McCarthy, Peter's sister dated Paul.

    And let's not forget Lady Godiva

    Ah well, just goes to show how unreliable memory can be, especially with music that really isn't that memorable.

    There was no group called the Hollywood Argyles. The song was written by Dallas Frazier as a country song but was recorded by studio musicians who were paid $25. Reportedly they were all drunk at the time of the recording. It sold over 1 million copies in 1960.

    Sure is hip.
