Edison Lighthouse - "Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes)"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XbbREwVijbg

First Class - "Beach Baby"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77QQ62SLEVk

The Pipkins - "Gimme Dat Ding"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEEy615Jzg4

White Plains - "My Baby Loves Lovin'"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XL0ijo89E9M

All these songs featured the same lead vocalist - Tony Burrows - and all were released within months of each other in 1970 (with the exception of First Class, which was in 1974). He also did vocals for the Brotherhood Of Man, but they had TWO hits. He is the only person in history to appear on the BBC version of Top Of The Pops to front three different acts all on the same show....and then was back on again a couple of weeks later for the Pipkins act.
