WLS Top 40 for July 7, 1969-- Part 6: "Love Me Tonight"


15.  LOVE ME TONIGHT--  Tom Jones     #13     The T.J. Formula at its best.  Sir Tom from Wales.

14.  LET ME--  Paul Revere / Raiders      #20    What, no uniforms?  Poofy shirts?  In the revup67 video.

13.  BLACK PEARL--  Sonny Charles     #13    Listed in Joel Whitburn's Top Pop Singles 1955-1993 as being the Checkmates Ltd..   Sonny Charles was their vocalist.   One of the prettiest-ever songs.  A great slow-dancing song.

12.  MY PLEDGE OF LOVE--  Joe Jeffrey Group     #14     Real name Joseph Stafford Jr..  Died September 4, 2016.  Their only Top 100.

11.  WHAT DOES IT  TAKE--  Jr. Walker & the Allstars     #4    One of my all-time favorite soul songs.  Takes me right back to the summer of '69.

Name That Tune (from the above songs):  "You've Been In The Background Much Too Long."  Answer below.  --RoadDog
