Anyone remember the Barron Knights?
They used to do dreadful parodies of current hit records in the late '70s and early '80s.
Their first hit was "Call Up The Groups" back in 64, pretty sure I've still got the single somewhere

And according to Wiki they are still going, they visit Oz regularly and a friend of mine who played with them back in the day sits in on drums
