    Got the band, but couldn't think of the song right away. Then I found it in my own collection.

    Holding......

    Oh, and good tune. The DJ did good this time.

    Honey Drops / London Underground

    Group hint: Typically spread on toast/ "Underground" is a correct word in the song title

    I'm out of town, so when someone gets it, please proceed :)

    I have an artist that fits, but only a couple of his songs come to mind. Time to head out to the football game soon (TCU vs ISU). Maybe I'll hear something that jogs my memory along the way.

    Poppy Family??
    Never heard of them, so I'll yield the floor to someone who actually knows their songs...

    The Poppy Family were a successful Canadian pop music group, based in Vancouver, British Columbia. They were popular worldwide in the late 1960s and 1970s. With Susan Jacks on lead vocals, harmony vocals and percussion, Terry Jacks on rhythm guitar and occasional vocals, Craig McCaw on guitar/sitar and Satwant Singh on tablas/drums and other percussion, the group recorded their first album, from which came their international hit "Which Way You Goin' Billy?" (#1 in Canada, #1 in Cashbox and #2 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100). The album also produced "That's Where I Went Wrong" (#9 in Canada, #29 in the US). "Which Way You Goin' Billy?" and "That's Where I Went Wrong" were both Top 10 Adult Contemporary chart hits as well.

    From Wiki. The song I'm looking for was on their 2nd LP,
