25 is a bit obscure but show my age a bit... clue not a well known band except maybe in aussie land, title has Dave in it ....

 

[FreoDocker]

nah I think I'm too young for 25
The only bands with "dave" that I can think of at the moment are:

Dave Graney 'n the Coral Snakes
Dave Dobbyn & Herbs
The Dave Matthews Band
The Dave Steel Band

 

[Mobbs]

Dave & The Derros?

 

[dreampolice]

And the winner is ....... MOBBENFUHRER !
yes Dave and the Deros were a one hit band a couple of djs reelased the single Death to disco in 1977 or 78. A tough one but one just to push you all. I don't think it got to top 10 status but it was a classic and gots lots of air play.
Well done everybody- again!

 

[Mobbs]

Woohoo!

Honestly I have never heard of that song.

The only reason I know of them is from 'Nice Legs, Shame About The Face"

I'm proud!
