WLS Top 40 for February 10, 1969-- Part 6: "I Got A Line On You"
15. BABY, BABY DON'T CRY-- Smokey Robinson / Miracles #8 Does a slow-dancing song get any better than this?
14. I'VE GOTTA BE ME-- Sammy Davis Jr. #11 From the Broadway musical "The Golden Rainbow." His third highest chart song. Quite a message.
13. IF I CAN DREAM-- Elvis Presley #12 Originally the "B" side. Kind of a rewrite of #14.
12. I GOT A LINE ON YOU-- Spirit #25 Los Angeles group with Jay Ferguson as lead singer. he had a big hit in 1977 "Thunder Island."
11. I'M LIVING IN SHAME-- Diana Ross / Supremes #10 Very much reminds me of "Love Child." Makes a good point about loving your mom before she's gone.
