Some artists only have one really big hit. I mentioned before about Bobby Day having one hit as a solo artist. He also had a hit as a member of The Hollywood Flames, with a song he co-wrote under his real name, Bobby Byrd. This was one of the few songs on which he was not the lead singer. He left the group around the same time and his his one solo hit.
