When you mentioned The Cheers I thought, "The same group that recorded Leader of the Laundromat?" But then upon reflection I realized that was The Detergents. Detergent - Cheer... See how my mind (don't) work?

I don't remember ever hearing "Bazoom". If it was a hit, it must have been a very minor one. I'll agree that The Cheers were lame.
Unfortunately, I DO remember hearing "Bazoom."

According to Wiki (again), it hit the Top 20.

On August 28, 1930 every studio in Hollywood briefly shut down. Why?
Apparently, I've stumped the house. Go, me.

All the studios held moments of silence for Lon Chaney, who was buried that day.

I'll make the next one easier: What was the pre-production name for the movie Help!?

Speaking of Elvis movies, King Creole was (loosely) based on a novel. Name it and its author.

Name the winners based on Pulitzer-winning plays.

Cher. Her single "Believe" hit #1 on March 13, 1999, her first time on top since "Dark Lady" on March 23, 1974.


Most Billboard #1 singles from one album?
