I caught them several times, back in the day. They were probably opening for other bands that I came to see.

I cannot recall a single rocker from them - kudos to you for finding one!

Martha had a voice and she could really sing, and two of their songs still linger in my memory: "Suddenly Last Summer" and "Only the Lonely". I think those were the only ones that dented the charts...
