Same era as Drivers Seat, one of the first 45's I ever bought was 'Shakedown Cruise' by Jay Ferguson.


(Just looked this up and he did Thunder Island too! So maybe he doesn't really qualify as a one-hit-wonder!)

I had the album with "Shakedown Cruise". It was awful!

The B-side of Shakedown Cruise was pretty bad as I remember. I owned very few 45's back then that had good B-sides :)

The B-side of Soul Man by the Blues Brothers was 'Rubber Biscuit'. It was probably the best B-side of all my 45s!

Years ago (maybe on Dr. Demento?) I heard a Sinatra-esque version of "Whole Lotta Love". It was hilarious.

True Colors was a hit in the US, as was Time After Time.

and they had a bunch of hits here. Why? I don't know. And Barry Hay (the singer) is a prick.
