Staying with obscure Canadian bands for $200 Alex:

Clue: The poor people 

  

    

Clue: The poor people 

The Paupers

Obscure indeed!
 

Clue: Mr. Rogers Nelson

Clue: Mr. Rogers Nelson

Prince    Good follow-up and there was an obscure 60's band called The Prince and The Paupers

When I hear Prince's real name I think of the TV show "I Dream of Jeannie" because of Major Roger Healey and Major Anthony Nelson.....maybe Prince should have called himself Major. 
If Prince ever writes a song about "I Dream of Jeannie" he'd probably change it to "I Cream on Jeannie."
