WLS Top 40 Silver Dollar Survey for July 15, 1966-- Part 1: "Sunny"

Just 50 years ago, boys and girls, well, old boys and girls.

40.  MISTY--  Groove Holmes  (Richard "groove" Holmes.  #44 on Billboard.  Born Pittsburgh, this song is 6 minutes long, an organ instrumental.

39.  TRAINS & BOATS & PLANES--  Dionne Warwick--  #22.  Real pretty slow one.

38.  BILLY & SUE--  B.J. Thomas  #34.  A war song, just perfect for Vietnam.  She was a runaround Sue who wrote him a Dear John letter.

37.  SUNNY--  Bobby Hebb  #2 on Billboard.  Born in Nashville.

36.  FRIDAY'S CHILD--  Nancy Sinatra #36 on Billboard.  Slow.  Not one of her better-known songs.

Name That Tune (from the above):  "We Were So In Love and High Above We had a Star to Wish Upon."  --RoadDog
