I'll have to have all my facts if I set another quiz. I only ever heard of the second name, so you get two Leather Medals.
The worst part about it is that one of the youngsters knows more than me ;D

Why do you start these quizes when i am out.I think two of the bachelors boys worked here in Finglas in Unidare and played as The Harmonichords in the Casion cinema at the Christmas concert back in 61and they were anything but bachelors look at all the women they sang about Charmaine .Diane .Martha Ramona and Marie and Dolly where did they get the energy from. ;D ;D ;D
