WLS Top 40 for April 8, 1968-- Part 3: ""Dock of the Bay"
30. IN NEED OF A FRIEND-- Cowsills #54 Five brothers, little sister and mother. Never heard of this song before, but the more you hear it, the more you'll like it song.
29. MONY MONY-- Tommy James & the Shondells #3 Tommy James formed pop group Shondells at age 12.
28. TAKE TIME TO KNOW HER-- Percy Sledge #11 Pride of Leighton, Alabama. Second biggest hit. His biggest, of course "When a Man Loves a Woman" #1 1966. Not a good first wedding dance song, though.
27. KISS ME GOODBYE-- Petula Clark #15 Had six Top Tens and two #1s from 1964 to 1967.
26. DOCK OF THE BAY-- Otis Redding #1 His name IS SOUL. Too bad he was already dead when this went to #1.
