Top Tens: Below are the weekly national top ten hits from 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 years ago
as reported by the music industry's two major trade publications
Billboard and Cash Box
By coincidence, I sent Bill the NY top 25 from the late, lamented WMCA from 50 years ago today, this morning.
Here is the top 10, which I would put up against any of the other lists (with the exception of the Mitch Ryder song):
1 1 PENNY LANE - The Beatles 2 2 RUBY TUESDAY - The Rolling Stones 3 3 I’VE BEEN LONELY TOO LONG - The Young Rascals 4 4 LOVE IS HERE AND NOW YOU’RE GONE - The Supremes 5 11 SOCK IT TO ME--BABY! - Mitch Ryder & The Detroit Wheels 6 7 DEDICATED TO THE ONE I LOVE - The Mamas & The Papas 7 5 THERE’S A KIND OF HUSH / NO MILK TODAY - Herman’s Hermits 8 6 GIMME SOME LOVIN’ - The Spencer Davis Group 9 14 HAPPY TOGETHER - The Turtles 10 19 BERNADETTE - The Four Tops
