'The Tottenham Sound'...Name that band and extra credit for the name of the track, their most famous... *This artist hasn't had a top 40 hit in more than 25 years, but all 6 of his albums from 1988-1998 have been certified as Gold albums.

Name the band and the song that hopefully will promote as big a smile as advertised when you hear it... Battle Of The Bands!
