Answers

1. The Little River Band, in 1978. Recording the song was difficult until the perfect keyboard player came into town just as the band was about to give up. One more shot and there it was, a hit.

2. April Wine, in 1985. The group was under contract for one more album, but by the time they produced this one, the group had already broken up. They managed to pull it off with the use of session musicians and two original members of the band.

3. The Box Tops, in 1967, three months after "The Letter" was released.

4. The Who, in 1967.

5. "Pink Cadillac," by Bruce Springsteen in 1984. The song stayed on Billboard for 14 weeks and was later covered by numerous others, including Natalie Cole and Jerry Lee Lewis.
