Sonia Dada also resonates in the current Hot 100: country artist Jarrod Niemann covered one of their songs ("Lover, You Don't Treat Me Good No More"), retitled it "Lover, Lover," and crossed over into the Top 40 with it. It's still on the charts now.

It happens, but not as often as it oughta. That first Sonia Dada album was *huge* on KFOG at the time and a personal fave of mine.
