ReplyDelete2 The Roches - Mr Sellack
ReplyDeleteI know I've discovered the boys in No. 10 when researching other similar bands but can't now remember what the T stands for - Will kick myself.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, three guesses now so will leave the rest for the others - Hope the stress levels associated with moving are within manageable proportions. As ever, good luck with it.
Thank you. Hopefully the worst of it is over.
DeleteI had you down to get #8 and 6.
Yes, think I would have got 6 (good clue) but was hogging the action!
DeleteWill kick myself re no 8. Something involving New Orleans?

ReplyDeleteThanks, C. It was pre-prepared. Computer still in a box.
DeleteIs 6 - "Danny's Song"?
ReplyDelete8. Orleans _ "Dance With Me"
ReplyDeleteOne of your favourites, I bet!
Delete"Dance With Me" was/is the only song of theirs I knew. Don't think it made the UK charts but it got played a lot on the radio.
ReplyDeleteAnd I learned a lot about Anne Murray from an episode of "Family Guy".
