Question
Hi! Can you tell me what British band had their only no 1 hit single in New Zealand?

Thanks
Helen

Answer
  I do not happen to know that.  Although I do know a lot of trivia about groups,  that really isn't my thing.  I tend to know things like the songs bands did, their albums and album artwork, the record labels they were on, who produced them.  
 Most of the questions I answer deal with people who are looking for the name of a song that they hear on the radio, and can provide me with some of the lyrics and a description of some of the music.
 I wish I could help you with this one,  but it just isn't something
I know  and not something I could research in my  books.

I can answer general questions about rock era bands, record labels they were on, and names of songs. Often I can tell the name of the record company that released a song, as well as the name of the song, and the year of release based on some of the lyrics. I grew up during the rock era and I am a musician myself, and always read the album and 45 info for production credits as well as lineups. One of the chat rooms I go to is quite amused at my ability to name a song along with it`s year of release and record label. I was also a record collector for years.
