Band 1 and Song O: Boss Martians, who covered the 1964 The Trashmen song, A Bone.

Only one left to go :) Could that be "One fine car" by James Dead?

Is the last song a cover or an original?

When you mean relative, do you mean in comparison, like "larger?"

It's a descriptor of size. Not a comparative measure.

What's the theme of this song? Hot rods?

Very much so.

Update: After finally finding an MP3 of the song (the words to the song had been elusive), I've swapping out the old "H" picture for the new one.

I found the guy!!! Finally. Roger Christian is our missing singer. Now as for the song. He worked under the alias Hot Rod Rog and had a song, Little Street Machine. Is that the missing one?

30 points??? Wow, that is much more than expected! Thanks for this puzzle, it was quite challenging but also very rewarding.

And I have passed the 500-point-mark. I am very happy today :)
