Or by region and probably decade but given that this is more entertainment than archival...

I dunno, but just in case, here's one for the US (and probably other countries).

I saw them at Bessie’s Boathouse in Norfolk, Virginia in the early eighties. It was an old boat warehouse converted to a concert venue. Super fun place that got a lot of good bands, but with absolutely god-awful acoustics. Katrina was fun power pop.
"Brandy," Looking Glass.

Thank you GG! I’ve now added this to my repertoire. It translates pretty well to acoustic without the lead. A nice energetic strummer! I need more like this from the era.

The Tremolos had several hits as part of the 60's British Invasion, "Silence Is Golden" is at least another. In the UK I think they were Brian Poole and The Tremolos, but probably changed that when they hit the US...
While I don't remember this particular tune, this is the album cover I remember in the bins...mostly due to the great picture of the maple-glo Rickenbacker

Look her up on Wiki, one hit wonder but quite a career...she's 76 now!
She went on the acid trip with Peter Fonda in Easy Rider, and was a very accomplished choreographer.
i love the song, but when I hear it, I am actually hearing Weird Al’s “Ricky.”
