Every so often I'll do all 40 songs on the survey just to really get a slice of that period of time's music. I usually recognize the Top Ten, but there are always ones further down the list that I don't remember ever hearing as well as unknown to me groups requiring some research.
These are from the oldiesloon site, a great repository for all thing 60s music and other oldies.
I'll start at #40 and work my way up to #1 An * means this is one I'm not familiar with. You Tube here I come.
40. YOU WERE ONLY FOOLING-- Vic Damone*
39. WOOLLY BULLY-- Sam the Sham (Let me predict big things for this one.)
38. NOTHING CAN STOP ME-- Gene Chandler
37. I DO LOVE YOU-- Billy Stewart
36. I'LL BE DOGGONE-- Marvin Gaye
35. THINK OF THE GOOD TIMES-- Jay & the Americans*
34. IT'S GROWING-- temptations (Was this their first Top 40?)
33. OOO BABY BABY-- Miracles
32. BABY THE RAIN MUST FALL-- Glenn Yarbrough
31. SHE'S ABOUT A MOVER-- Sir Douglas Quintet (Texans being English, right Doug?)

SOME CRAZY SAYINGS: She had a boyfriend with a wooden leg, but broke it off.
Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
