Fifty years ago on Chicago's WLS, 890 AM radio. I was a student at the University of Georgia at the time, but could get WLS late at night, that super 50,000 watts whether you needed them or not.
* Means the song was climbing the charts. The number after the artist is how high the song got on the Billboard Hot 100 national charts.
20. CLEANUP WOMAN-- Betty Wright #6 Her highest ranked song. In 1978, she had a #8 song "Dance With Me" with Peter Brown. She died May 10, 2020.
19. WHERE DID OUR LOVE GO-- Donnie Elbert #15 A great Beach Music version of a Supremes song. Born in New Orleans in 1936.
18. CHERISH-- David Cassidy #9 Out on his own away from that TV show. Did the Association proud on his cover of their song. His highest-ranking song. His half brother Shaun Cassidy had three straight Top 7 songs in 1977.
17. HAVE YOU SEEN HER-- Chi-Lites #3 Soul doesn't get much better than this. Both spoken and sung. Their second highest ranked song. Their #1 came out three months later.
16. BLACK DOG-- Led Zeppelin #15 Let's do some Rock and Roll. Always one of my favorites. A real kicking song.
