Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

March 6, 1964 WLS Silver Dollar Survey-- The Rest of It: Parents, Country, Invasion and Cashing In

Our Parents' Music-- British Invasion-- Country and Cashing In On the Beatles. //// I looked at the rest of the survey and did some categorizing. It was, other than the Baetles in the Top Ten, quite a diverse group of artists and songs. //// OUR PARENTS' MUSIC: #9. The Shelter of Your Arms-- Sammy Davis Jr // #17. I Love You More and More-- Al Martino // #18. A Fool Never Learns-- Andy Williams // #28. Stardust-- Nino Temp & April Stevens //// BRITISH INVASION: #12. Glad All Over-- Dave Clark Five // #20. It's All In the Game-- Cliff Richard // #25. Needles and Pins-- Searchers // #29. Hippy Hippy Shake-- Swinging Blue Jeans //// COUNTRY: Long Gone Lonesome Blues-- Hank Williams Jr. // Saginaw Michigan-- Lefty Frizzell // He Says the Same Thing-- Skeeter Davis //// CASHING IN ON THE BEATLES: #23 We Love You Beatles-- Carefree // #32 Liverpool-- Vice-Roys. //// The last song by the Vice-Roys, was an instrumental so I am not sure whether it had anything to do with the Beatles other than that is where they were from and to come out at this time. Kind of a coincidence. //// Bocehpus and the Beatles? --RoadDog
