WLS Top 40 For the Week of February 9, 1970-- Part 7: "The Rapper"


15.  MY ELUSIVE DREAMS--  Bobby Vinton      #46    Always up there with "Honey" in gag appeal.

14.  THE RAPPER--  Jaggerz     #2    From Pittsburgh.   More COWBELL!!!   A rapper at this time was a guy who had smooth lines with chicks.

13.  MA BELLE AMIE--   Tee Set     #5    Dutch group.  Always love the organ after they the words "Ma Belle Amie."

12.  VENUS--  Shocking Blue      #1     Another Dutch group.  What was this?  The Dutch Invasion?   Watch the video.  She still reminds me a bit of Linda Ronstadt.

11.  WALKIN' IN THE RAIN--  Jay & the Americans       #19    Just good pop.  Their last big hit.     Jay was John Traynor.

Name That Tune (from the above songs):  "You Were A Child Of the Sun, of the  Sky and the Deep Blue Sea."  Answer below.  --RoadDog
