There are so many that you all have already thrown out - let me add:
Quinn the Eskimo (Manfred Mann's version) Circle of Friends - Phil Ochs (and most of his other songs, as well) Peace Frog - Doors Free Four - Pink Floyd Victoria - Kinks Concrete & Clay - Unit 4 + 2 |

That's a great song. I made myself a compilation CD of one hit wonder British Invasion songs and that song is on it. Also on it are The Honeycombs - Have I the Right? and Walker Brothers - The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore

Concrete and Clay is one of the best songs for a group that never had another hit.

Unit Four Plus Two not really a one hit wonder. Concrete and Clay peaked at #28 in 1965 but this was because there were two competing versions of the song(the other by Eddie Rombeau). I hit #12 in Cash Box. Interestingly, it was a #1 hit in England.
Unit Four Plus Two followed this up with You've Never Been in Love Like This Before which peaked at #95--so technically band not a one hit wonder. The Honeycombs followed up their#5 hit Have I the Right? with I Can't Stop which peaked at #48. The Walker Brothers other hit was Make It Easy on Yourself which peaked at #16 with 10 weeks on the chart. They also scored with My Ship is Comin' In which peaked at #63. |

Glyn- so you know Love's Revelation. That's cool, very few people do. It's about 18 minutes long, and takes up the whole second side of Da Capo.
