Not really. They had a few hits in the 60's (Yeah, technically you can say the 60's/70's versions were different bands); also had a couple more hits after Blinded, which were also written by Bruce.

I've never heard of any of them.

Spirits In the Night & (I Came) For You.

Albeit, they were lower charting hits that didn't get as high as "Blinded.....", but still got a lot of play on rock radio at the time.
