A colorful pop duo from the Netherlands best known for their 1972 international hit "How Do You Do," Mouth & MacNeal came to be in 1971 when producer Hans van Hemert brought together the talents of former construction worker-turned-rocker Willem Duyn (aka "Big Mouth") and classically trained vocalist Sjoukje Van’t Spiijker (aka "Maggie MacNeal"). The duo wasted little time in issuing their first single, "Hey You Love," which was a huge regional hit. But it was the next two singles, "How Do You Do" and "Hello-A," that shot to the number one spot on the Dutch charts, with the former becoming an international phenomenon, spending 19 weeks on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart and eventually going gold -- that would become their bread and butter. That success helped the group's debut LP crack Billboard's Top 100 albums chart, but it would be their last hit , the duo had parted ways, with Big Mouth pairing up with Ingrid Kup, whom he would eventually marry, and MacNeal continuing on with her solo career. ~ James Christopher Monger
