The Archies
- Actor

Another creation by rock impresario
Don Kirshner, who unleashed
The Monkees on an unsuspecting world, The
Archies were never a group, in the commonly accepted sense of the
word--the voices for this animated cartoon series were supplied by
session singers (among them
Andy Kim, who later went on to a
respectable solo career) and the songs were written by well-regarded
songwriters (among them Ellie Greenwich
and Jeff Barry, who also produced
many of them). After some minor hits, the "group" blasted into the
public eye with the surprise hit "Sugar Sugar", which for some reason
shot to #1 in both the US and UK. A follow-up song, "Jingle Jangle",
managed to break into the top 10 but didn't cop the #1 spot.
