They hadn't yet scored any Top 40 US hits, but they scored this '60's #1 
hit elsewhere. (See snippet below). Can you name this group and song
title?

GOOD LUCK!

Music TRIVIA + CD Covers - The Music Machine

They were discover performing at a bowling alley. They'd dress entirely, 
including gloves, and even dyed their hair all this same color. What 
color was it?

GOOD LUCK!

p.s. Their "demo" of "Talk Talk" (1966+) may be what was actually 
published and what you're listening to...

Music TRIVIA + CD Covers - Neil Sedaka - Reaching Italy
A scan of the front cover of an unopened, im****ted CD, from Italy.
I put this CD in my Media Player, and it's confused when it tries to 
capture the Track information from the internet! Rare? You tell me...
