The English stuff I know and can sing along too, but the American stuff, wow its so weird. James Macarthur really, the guy from Five-Oh. I will enjoy this bunch. Thanks a lot for the waking my memory.
ReplyDeleteHi lemonflag.

Cheers.

Hi Stephen.
DeleteI am always thrilled when I hear Dion especially when he is older.
Cheers.
Very nice. Out of interest which magazine's charts are you taking these from please?
ReplyDeleteHi Paul.
DeleteMultiple lists and articles are used to reference these.
UK Official Singles Chart Top 50, Tunecaster, Billboard, Wikipedia and memory are just some.
Cheers.
Thanks.
DeleteMany thanks again BB, this collection is growing slowly but surely. 👍
ReplyDeleteHi headspace,
DeleteOften, I have these comps on repeat for a few run throughs. I always seem to hear new sounds even though I know the tracks. Enjoy.
Cheers.
I will be 117 years old next month, and I still remember some of these as the best damn records ever made! Which ones, you ask? I ask the same question. I'm not kidding, which ones? Ah, I remember now: Bob B. Soxx & the Blue Jeans' "Not Too Young To Get Married" gets better every decade. As do most hits from the day that sold on the strength of Darlene Love's uncredited vocals, dagnabbit. Meanwhile, Inez & Charlie Foxx's "Mockingbird" gets remade every decade, sometimes almost as successfully (Dusty Springfield at the '64 NMEs comes to mind), and sometimes much less so (James and Carly, STFU and sit the F down, as we used to say on perimeter watch, I forget which war.) Yeah, a lotta hits. Most of 'em missed the perimeter, though.
ReplyDeleteHi Johnathan.
DeleteAre you 117 years old? My, the musical changes you must have heard and enjoyed in your lifetime.
It makes me happy to hear you are enjoying this series and that it brings you fond memories.
Cheers.
Nah, I'm just funnin' with ya. I'm your basic early Boomer, so used to being the oldest person in any exchange like this that I thought I'd exaggerate a bit more. But I sure remember 1963 very well: I tend to think it was the most productive year in rock history prior to the Beatles, in terms of the proportion of significant hit singles that have stood the test of time. The foundational days of '56, '57 were massively significant, but the hits we remember didn't represent much of the total tonnage of charted discs, which on the white pop charts was still heavily weighted toward slushy pop and C&W crossovers, with little rock 'n' roll and less R&B. But by '63, as you show here, genres were starting to mix up nicely and naturally ... fortunately for the Beatles, who had a wealth of Motown and other chart-toppers to mine for their live sets and early LPs!
