WLS Top 40 for November 10, 1969-- Part 6: "Suspicious Minds"

15.  LOVE WILL FIND A WAY--  Jackie DeShannon        #40   I don't remember this one., but it grows on you and I'm surprised it didn't do better.   Follow up to her biggest hit, "Put A Little Love In Your Heart."

14.  NA NA HEY HEY--  Steam     #1   Dig the single cover which had the lads sitting where?  As a White Sox fan, I definitely love this song.  Thanks Nancy Faust.   Their only Top 40 song.

13.  SMILE A LITTLE SMILE--  Flying Machine      #5   Almost a gag me song, but some redeeming parts.

12.  BABY I'M FOR REAL--  Originals     #14  Now, here is some great SOUL.  I don't remember it, but can almost hear Herb Kent, the Cool Gent, introducing this Dusty.   Formed in Detroit in 1966.

11.  SUSPICIOUS MINDS--    Elvis Presley      #1   Probably my favorite Elvis song.

Name That Tune (from the above songs):  "He'll Never Love You The Way That I Love You."  Answer below.  --RoadDog

Music Deaths: Gary DeCarlo of Steam "Na Na Hey Hey (Kiss Him Goodbye"

GARY DeCARLO, 75   Died June 28, 2017

Lead singer with Steam and co-wrote their huge hit "Na Na Hey Hey (Kiss Him Goodbye)" (#1-1969)  It was initially the "B" side of the record Gary, Paul Leka and Dale Frasheur were to release under the name Garret Scott on Mercury Records.

The record was released under the name Steam and when it got popular, a bogus group was sent out to support it on tour.  The song sold 6 1/2-8 million copies and became a sports anthem, thanks to organist Nancy Faust of the Chicago White Sox.

"Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey Goodbye,"  Said the Sox Fan.  --RoadDog
