Band reunions

Which band would you like to see reformed for a last hurrah? The Smiths, Abba, Gabriel/Hackett Genesis, S Club 7, or someone else? Just a bit of fun. They have to be alive, so no Beatles, Floyd or...

Does anyone remember The Rolling Stones at No1 in 1966 with 'Nineteenth Nervous Breakdown'?

I do. Just like Beatles 'Please Please me' it is No 2 in all these silly reference books that people seem to believe.

Was The Beatles 'Please Please me' a UK No 1?

I remember it definitely at No 1 in 1963 but it seems the goalposts have moved again and it is not according to some obscure music mag which they now use.
