I grew up calling scallions 'spring onions' and have avoided that mix up.

Thank goodness there wasn't another r&b combo from that era called The Dervishes or something.

I get all of those old vocal groups mixed up - I usually recognise Platters songs as my dad played them a lot.

who are in an entirely different genre but I still can never remember which is which
― threnody for the victims of alan shearer (Matt #2), Saturday, 4 April 2020 21:52 (four years ago) link
... aren't they in the same genre? There's another one:
The Peddlers
... a mystery of a band, nobody has ever listened to them since ca. 1972.

... aren't they in the same genre?
I meant The Detroit Spinners, who were called that in the UK to differentiate them from the folky Spinners. At least I think I meant them. I'm just confusing myself further with all this, I give up.
