Two of them released their first records in the 60's! (edit missed that you'd deleted Neil Young)

Nothing to do with your age, its your lack of music knowledge. Quite a few of the bands put forward by Declan pre-date all of your suggestions.

The Big Bopper

Ritchie Valens

Buddy Holly

 

Hey, Richie Valens. Remember "Tell Laura I love her"?

 

I once went into a branch of WH Smith and asked the hatchet-faced old harridan behind the counter if they had "Tell Laura". Her face softened, and in an instant the years fell away and I found myself looking at a young girl.

 

"Richie Valens", she breathed, and a far-away look came into her eyes, which were misting rapidly. "This way!". She came bouncing out from behind the counter, and almost skipped to a rack of tapes which she quickly rummaged through. "Here!", she cried, holding up the desired article. She then went silent for a moment, recalling no doubt some amorous interlude that had lain dormant in her memory for many years.

 

In a few moments she came back to earth, dazzled me with a most unexpected smile, and proceeded to wrap my purchase.

 

If you want to live forever in people's hearts, die young.

Thats cause I scan read it first time and then realised Neil Young was on the list! lol

 

And maybe you are right mojomonkey, maybe I know their records (if they were 'hits') maybe I just dont know who sung them.

Sure she wasn't just enjoying a moment with her love eggs?
