A father and daughter act signed to the Naim label, NAP King Cole and NACalie Cole. They did a cover of "HICAP Silver Edging", and also a version of ABC's "Poison ARO". Old Nap wore a FLATCAP on stage to disguise his thinning hair. At the end of every show he used to say "ARMAGEDDON outta here" and then he'd rush off stage.
