WLS Top 40 for May 12, 1969-- Part 2: "Seattle"


(D) refers to a debut.  The number after the artist is how high the song got on the Billboard Hot 100.

And, remember, fifty years ago.

35.  SEATTLE--  Perry Como     #38   Blue skies in Seattle?  When?   More like rain.  Is this a tourism ploy?  Five Bucks anyone?   From the TV series "Here Come the Brides" starring Bobby Sherman.  Did Julie love him?

34.  MORE TODAY THAN YESTERDAY--  Spiral Staircase     #12   One of life's little pleasures like "Everyday With You."  A real show band doing a really catchy song.  Their biggest hit of three Top 100s.

33.  WILL YOU BE STAYING AFTER SUNDAY--  Peppermint Rainbow      #32   How's the group's name for a psychedelic name.     Mama and Papa Wannabes?    Watch the video for some really strange collars on the guys in the band.   From Baltimore.

32.  SPECIAL DELIVERY--  1910 Fruitgum Company    #38   Written by Bobby Bloom.  I LOVE my Bubble Gum Music.  It's really hard to sit still when that Bubble Hum is playing.    From New Jersey.

31.  GOODBYE--  Mary Hopkin      #13     What a great song  Written by Lennon-McCartney, but sounds more like a Paul song.  Follow up to "Those Were the Days."

Name That Tune (from the above songs):  " I Don't Remember What Day It Was, I Didn't Remember What Time It Was."  Answer below.  --RoadDog


"More Today Than Yesterday"
