WLS Top 40 for September 8, 1969-- Part 2: "Workin' On A Groovy Thing"
The number after the artist is how high the song got on the Billboard Hot 100 national charts.
35. WORKIN' ON A GROOVY THING-- Fifth Dimension #20 Again, Florence LaRue and Marilyn McCoo. Sigh.
34. WHAT'S THE USE OF BREAKING UP-- Jerry Butler #20 "When you just turn around and make up." Chicago's "Ice Man."
33. OH WHAT A NIGHT-- Dells #10 Love that deep bass voice. This was three soul classics in a row. From Harvey, Illinois.
32. DON'T IT MAKE YOU WANT TO GO HOME-- Joe South #41 Joseph Alfred Souter from Atlanta, Georgia. Ahh, the good old days.
31. CARRY ME BACK-- Rascals #26 Old time spiritual song. Quite different from their early days. These New York City boys want to go back to their old Kentucky home. Their last Top 40.
Name That Tune (from the above songs): "Do You Remember A Girl, That Very Special Girl." Answer below. --RoadDog
