33. I'M YOUR PUPPET-- James and Bobby Purify Went to #6 on Billboard. Their biggest hit. As good of soul as you'll get. They were James Purify and his cousin Lee Dickey from Florida.
32. ALL I SEE IS YOU-- Dusty Springfield #20 on Billboard. Follow-up to"You Don't Have to Say You Love Me" which went to #14.
31. GET AWAY-- Georgie Fame Went to #70 on Billboard. A white guy and I always thought he was black. His biggest hits were "Yeh, Yeh" (#21 -1965) and "The Ballad of Bonnie and Clyde" (#7-1968). Really great song.
30. RAIN ON THE ROOF-- Lovin' Spoonful Went to #10 on Billboard. Actually, this was also a debut. Follow up to their #1 hit "Summer in the City." From New York City.
29. SPIN OUT-- Elvis Presley Went to #40 on Billboard. This was the flipside of "All That I Am" which went to #41. from his movie "Spin Out." Not one of his better known hits.
28. LITTLE MAN--- Sonny and Cher Went to #21 on Billboard. The video on You Tube showed a whole lot of Cher's feet for some reason. Great instrument playing on the song. Now, whenever i hear the song, I picture that commercial with the little horse and the pet door at the house so he can come in and out as he pleases.

Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
