REACH OUT (I'LL BE THERE)-- FOUR TOPS-- In the Top Ten with one of their biggest hits ever. Great Motown classic. (And, the late great Levi Stubbs.)
BLACK IS BLACK-- LOS BRAVOS-- from Spain.
HOORAY FOR HAZEL-- TOMMY ROE-- Great Bubblegum (A Very underrated performer. He sure had a lot of great songs.)
ELEANOR RIGBY-- BEATLES-- "A" side of single from the latest album, Revolver, just weeks old.
YELLOW SUBMARINE-- BEATLES-- "B" side
STOP STOP STOP-- HOLLIES-- Hit Bound
CHERRY CHERRY-- NEIL DIAMOND-- newcomer
MR. DIEINGLY SAD-- CRITTERS-- (I sure couldn't remember the name of the group until Stroud told me.)
96 TEARS-- ? AND THE MYSTERIANS-- Also Top Ten at #2. (Originally had the numbers reversed, but radio wouldn't play it.)
EVERY DAY AND EVERY NIGHT-- TROLLS-- What a tragic tale this is. Digging into our rich local heritage. A little garage band from Chicago in the Top Ten on the ABC label. (I hadn't heard this one in a really long time.)
CHERISH-- ASSOCIATION-- From their debut album. Pretty impressive to have a #1 hit off a debut album. The name of the album was Along Comes the Association.
That Was Sure Some Great Chicago Music Back Then. --RoadDog
