Oh, wait, it seems "Strawberry Alarm Clock" had several more hits. (But none that anyone remembers!)

Anyone remember this one by the Sufaris?
Wipeout

I could be cruising down the road in my 55 chevy, with my favorite girl, in the 60's and that song would come on. Some songs are just favorites. Stan

Somehow I always associated WipeOut with the Ventures. I had it on one of their albums.

If you want something good,go to you tube and look up "sina drummer" You should see this little 14 Y O girl play "Wipeout" her little bare going on the pedals!!!!!!!!!
My favorite one hit wonder is "Alley Oop" by the Hollywood Argyles.As far as I know,they made one record,it went # 1 and they never made another It was played at our Prom in"60

How about Get A Job by the Shilouettes.
1958

first to mind was "I Fought the Law" by Bobby Fuller Four. if that song doesn't get you a speeding ticket, I don't know what would.
it appears that they had some other chart songs, but must have been a regional thing.

Merrilee Rush, "Angel of the Morning". Saw her in 1968 at the Civic Auditorium in Chehalis, WA along with Paul Revere and the Raiders. Saw her again 3 weeks ago at "Bowzer's Rock and Do-Wop Show" at the casino in Ridgefield, WA- She can still bring it, and she's still a looker at age 75. Great show- Little Anthony and the Imperials, Freddy "Boom Boom" Cannon, The Chiffons, The Tokens (Lion Sleeps Tonight), the Fleetwoods and Merrilee. If the show comes to your area, don't miss it. We're coming to the end of that era- everybody on the show was in their mid to late 70's, and soon they'll be gone.

I can only think of this one song for this group ..... Alley Oop by the Hollywood Argyles. Quite the name for a singing group ....
Alley Ooop ..... Hollywood Argyles
