About Barron Knights
Artist Biography
The Barron Knights are a five-piece musical comedy group formed in Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire, England, in 1960. They started out as a straight music group, then found success doing parodies of the Merseybeat groups of the early '60s and never looked back, continuing to make fun of successive musical trends. Their first major hit was "Call Up the Groups," and they made the U.K. charts with a total of 13 singles through 1983, including "Pop! Go the Workers," "Merry Gentle Pops,""Live in Trouble," and "A Taste for Aggro." Their only U.S. chart entry came in 1979 with "The Topical Song," a parody of Supertramp's "The Logical Song." ~ William Ruhlmann
