The Pipkins were a short-lived novelty duo, best known for their hit single "Gimme Dat Ding" (Albert Hammond/Mike Hazlewood), which reached No. 6 in the UK Singles Charts and #9 on the U.S. charts in 1970.^[1] They were Roger Greenaway, best known as a member of several songwriting teams as evidenced by the track listing, and Tony Burrows (singer), who had fronted several groups (often simultaneously) such as Edison Lighthouse, White Plains, The First Class and Brotherhood of Man.

The Pipkins also released two follow-ups as singles, "Yakety Yak" and "Are You Cooking, Goose?", but without success. "My Baby Loves Lovin'" had been a hit for White Plains, whilst "Sunny Honey Girl" was a Top 20 hit for Cliff Richard in 1971.
