Are you thinking of Trio's "DaDaDa (I Don't Love You You Don't Love Me)" ???

It's too bad they were such a one-hit wonder/novelty act because they really were a cool band that had a lot of good songs. And yes, I'm serious.

If we're talking COMPLETELY forgotten, has anyone mentioned Death, from the motor city? They were a three-piece band that released one single in the 70's and then basically never saw the light of day until 2009.
Death - Keep on Knocking (1976) - YouTube
And what about Dust, the band with pre-fame Marky Ramone in it?

"Make me do anything you want" is on the wishlist of me and my lead guitarist for our set.
Madura (prog rock)
History
After the breakup of Bangor Flying Circus (1969), Alan DeCarlo and Hawk Wolinski formed Madura, replacing Bangor Flying Circus drummer Michael Tegza with Ross Salomone.
David "Hawk" Wolinski, previous Shadows of Knight member, Alan DeCarlo and Ross Salomone recorded two albums, produced by the Chicago producer James William Guercio. Hawk Wolinski later became a member of Rufus and Chaka Khan, and a successful producer and songwriter. Alan DeCarlo and Ross Salomone both appeared on Chicago keyboard player Robert Lamm's 1974 solo album Skinny Boy. Ross Salomone also appeared on albums by Chicago, Air Supply, Gerard, and Hollins & Star.
Madura can be seen and heard live on a short concert scene in J.W. Guercio's movie Electra Glide in Blue (1973) playing a part of the song "Free From The Devil". This is also included on the album from the movie. David Wolinski also appears as an actor in the movie, playing the part of "Hank, the VW bus driver."
The band's name "Madura" was inspired by the Meenakshi temple in Madurai.

I checked this one out-
Really sounds like early Weather Report (i.e. Bitches Brew-era Miles). Very cool.
FREE - Andy Fraser was the very best Bass Player of that decade. never over played, used the whole neck like none before him. Gibson EB3 and Marshall stacks - prefect. Only 15 too.
Yea, Rundgren was from Philly. Before Utopia was the Nazz (Open My Eyes).
How about:
James Montgomery Band (yo Boston speak up!)
Iron Maiden (maybe mentioned already)
Butterfield Blues Band
War
Steam
Harvey Brooks and the Fabulous Rhinestone
Mike Bloomfield/Al Kooper
Starland Vocal Band (more pop than rock)

That's because, the song was written by none other than Joe Zawinul himself. VERY good rendition of it here!
