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

WLS Top Ten: June 26, 1964

Still looking back at these great songs from that real turning point in rock history.

1.  LITTLE CHILDREN--  Billy J. Kramer & the Dakotas
2.  I GET AROUND--  Beach Boys
3.  MEMPHIS--  Johnny Rivers

4.  A WORLD WITHOUT LOVE--  Peter and Gordon
5.  MY BOY LOLLIPOP-- Millie Small
6.  THE GIRL FROM IPANEMA--  Astrud Gilberto & Stan Getz  (jumped from #21)
7.  CAN'T YOU SEE SHE'S MINE--  Dave Clark Five (jumped from #24)

8.  PARTY GIRL--  Bernadette Carroll
9.  LOVE ME DO/ P.S. I LOVE YOU--  You Know Who
10.  LOVE ME WITH ALL YOUR HEART--  Ray Charles Singers

Thursday, I will list all 40 songs to get a better idea of the numerous types of songs on the chart at the time.  Three of the Top Ten are by British Invasion acts: #1, #4 and #7.  Not sure where Millie Small was from.

Never heard of "Party Girl" by Bernadette Carroll.  You Tube here I come.  --RoadDpg
