I always liked DC5. Though nothing like the Fabs, or the Hollies, they had their own sound and vibe. Most of their songs are organ and drum driven with decent harmonies. The one show I could not make it to had them on the bill with Hermans Hermits and some other non-notables. Ahh, the good ole’ English days of rock.
