Beatles, "Please Please Me" Joan Jett, "I Love Rock 'n' Roll" EMF, "Unbelievable" Strawberry Alarm Clock, "Incense and Peppermints".
All were Billboard #1 singles except Please Please Me, which went to #3 according to wikipedia. Please Please Me might or might not have been a British #1 but the charts are unreliable.
"Unbelievable" is from Schubert Dip, which always makes me think of the Rutles' "Blue Suede Schubert" (a parody of "Roll Over Beethoven") but beyond that I don't see any connections.
