Winston Legthigh Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Travelling Wilburys - all of them. Ted Nugent - Amboy Dukes, and Damn Yankees. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PopTodd Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Seems to me that "hits" is being very loosely defined here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Damn Yankees: High Enough: #3 on the US Billboard Hot 100 Pop Chart. Put that in your pipe and smoke it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
