LSH-Sorry I forgot to respond to your Q. about Billy Vera & The Beaters!

The had that big #1 hit in 1987 with "At This Moment" when it was featured on "Family Ties". It originally got to #79 in 1981.

Before that he & his group had 2 lesser known hits,"I Can Take Care Of Myself" (also 1981) and "Country Girl-City Man" w/Judy Clay in 1968.

According to the "only" Billy Vera site,he's had a lot more singles out than those.

Here's 2 really great 1 hit wonders from the '50s:

The Dubs with the wonderful,"Could This Be Magic" and The Elegants with,"Little Star". Excellent 1950's vocal group ballads!
