M+M CD's and albums can sure be quite hard to find.  Even here in Canada, their stuff is becoming hard to find

I dated Martha's niece long ago. I never met Martha, she lived in Canada, whereas her relatives, the Stewart side of the family had relocated from Ontario to Massachusetts. Anyway, her niece was delighted I had heard of "Martha + The Muffins."
She said, "My aunt was in a band, but you wouldn't have heard of them."
I said, "I dunno, try me!"
She said, "Martha + The Muffins."
I said, "Why, of course I've heard of Martha + The Muffins"
;D

Maybe she just told you she was Martha's niece.  How do you really know? ;)

But then again, why would someone go around pretending to be Martha Johnson's neice ;D

And that's why my story is credible. Who would--who could--make up a story of once dating Marth Johnson's niece? If I was going to make something up, I'd say I dated Debbie Harry's niece, I mean somebody actually famous!
;D

Echo Beach - my Favourite!

Reminds me of elementary school. Take sme back! Oh how I wish for those days again! :(

I've only heard of Echo Beach which I think is a great song.  Looking at the list whistledog supplied it's not surprising I don't know any others.

A real case of one-hit wonders here methinks.... :)
