Renaissance.....Northern Lights 1978😎

A lot of one hit wonders tend to be "novelty" records but still plenty of bands who seem only remembered for that one hit single. Two of my favourites were "My Sharona" by the Knack and "Howzat" by Sherbet (Still not smart enough to post clips though I'm afraid 😞)

Go onto YouTube and choose your song and start to play it.
Underneath the clip there’s a “share” icon.
Tap on that and then tap on “copy link”.
In effect it’s like it’s then copied onto the end of your finger ( best way I can describe it )
You then go onto your forum message, tap the message box and “paste” will appear, tap “paste” and it attaches the link to YouTube and you then just “send” your message as per normal.
Also from 78....Blue Oyster Cult with Dont Fear The Reaper......another unique riff.

I remember seeing Annie Haslam enjoying a drink, sitting on a bench outside The Fountain pub in Clent. She was at that pub quite a lot back in those days.Quote:

They listened to the mates sing and then handed them a massive wedge.
