Greenbaum is notable for the rare achievement of having recorded two One-hit Wonder s. In 1968 , under the name Dr. West's Medicine Show And Junk Band , he recorded the novelty hit " The Eggplant That Ate Chicago ". Ironically, another group, Doctor And The Medics , became a one-hit wonder of sorts with their version of "Spirit in the Sky" in 1986 (they had a minor hit with the follow-up "Burn", and a hit album "Laughing At The Pieces"), and British television stars The Kumars also became one-hit wonders in the UK, when they reached No. 1 with Gareth Gates with the same song in 2003 . Greenbaum lives in Petaluma , California . He no longer performs in public, but continues to promote concerts and lives off the royalties from his songs. EXTERNAL LINKS |
