I have to go after that back-catalogue...
I was trying to think of a band that was similar in the 70s, but I couldn't. Blondie is probably the closest, but they were more punk than precision pop. The disco era gave us that "More More More" by Andrea True Connection, in which the twist was that the lead singer was a porn star. And couldn't sing whatsoever. That gives it an odd charm. But it's not precision pop either.
