It would be absolutely amazing to see this group get in the Hall of Fame. I have never heard a vocalist quite like Patty Donahue in my lifetime. That being said, I think the chances are slim. Despite their amazing body of work in just a couple albums, they never truly gained a commercial following beyond a couple hits like "Christmas Wrapping" and "I Know What Boys Like". I do feel like everyone should listen to their debut album, Wasn't Tomorrow Wonderful?, at the very least once in their lifetime.
