Biography:
Honeybus were a 1960s pop group formed in April 1967, in London, UK. They were best known for their 1968 UK Top 10 hit single, "I Can't Let Maggie Go". Since their heyday, have often been pigeonholed as a "one-hit wonder", a tag which many say belies the rich legacy of material left behind by the band.
The best known line-up consisted of:
* Pete Dello — (vocals, keyboards, guitar)
* Ray Cane — (vocals, bass, keyboards)
* Colin Hare — (rhythm guitar, vocals)

Dear all,
the only (English) version I have for this song is sung by the Honeybus.
Never heard of.
I'd be grateful to anybody who can point me to the original singers (and
correct lyrics!)
Share&enjoy, .mau.
