Posted July 5, 20169 yr http://www.d.umn.edu/cla/faculty/tbacig/cst3010/images/1960s_logo.gif :cry: 1960s Top 40 Rate - The 'Impossible' Part 5 :cry: Numbers 21 and 22s While there were several different UK singles charts during the 1960s (with the NME weekly chart being the most widely followed), the Guinness Book Of Hit Singles and, subsequently, the Official Charts Company use the Record Retailer chart as their reference during this period, so that's the one we'll be using here. The 'Official' Singles Charts, as we know it, didn't begin until February 1969. These series of rates will cover March 1960 (when the chart expanded to a Top 40 for the first time) to December 1969. Due to the relatively obscure nature of the tracks below you can vote as follows: +10 +9 +8 +7 +6 +5 +4 +3 +2 +1 If you can't pick ten songs, you can try four: +10 +7 +4 +1 And alternatively, if you can only pick three: +10 +5 +1 Number 21s Teresa Brewer - How Do You Know It's Love King Brothers - Doll House Joe Loss & His Orchestra - Wheels - Cha Cha Viscounts - Who Put The Bomp (In The Bomp, Bomp, Bomp) Ken Dodd - Pianissimo Shirley Bassey - Tonight Russ Conway - Lesson One Johnny Tillotson - Send Me The Pillow You Dream On David Thorne - The Alley Cat Song Kenny Ball & His Jazzmen - Casablanca Bobby Vee - Bobby Tomorrow Frankie Vaughan - Hey Mama Tymes - So Much In Love Rolling Stones - Come On Del Shannon - Sue's Gonna Be Mine Ray Charles - Busted Animals - Baby Let Me Take You Home Ronnie Hilton - Don't Let The Rain Come Down (Crooked Little Man) Crickets - (They Call Her) La Bamba Shirley Bassey - Goldfinger Twinkle - Golden Lights Sorrows - Take A Heart Sandie Shaw - How Can You Tell Tony Bennett - The Very Thought Of You Elvis Presley - Frankie And Johnny Paul & Barry Ryan - I Love How You Love Me Temptations - Ain't Too Proud To Beg Four Tops - Loving You Is Sweeter Than Ever Righteous Brothers - The White Cliffs Of Dover Bachelors - Walk With Faith In Your Heart Rita Pavone - You Only You Elvis Presley - Indescribably Blue Martha Reeves & The Vandellas - Jimmy Mack Sandie Shaw - Tonight In Tokyo Shirley Bassey - Big Spender Frankie Vaughan - So Tired Anita Harris - Anniversary Waltz Grapefruit - Dear Delilah Solomon King - When We Were Young Nice - America Band - The Weight Cliff Richard & The Shadows - Don't Forget To Catch Me Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell - You Ain't Livin' Till You're Lovin' Long John Baldrey - It's Too Late Now Fairport Convention - Si Tu Dois Partir Elvis Presley - Clean Up Your Own Back Yard Pioneers - Long Shot Kick De Bucket Number 22s Bobby Rydell - Volare Johnny Kidd & The Pirates - Restless Peter Sellers & Sophia Loren - Bangers And Mash Gene Vincent - She She Little Sheila Brenda Lee - Dum Dum Shane Fenton & The Fentones - I'm A Moody Guy Mr Acker Bilk & His Paramount Jazz Band - Stars And Stripes/Creole Jazz Troy Shondell - This Time Temperance Seven - The Charleston Frankie Vaughan - Don't Stop Twist Clinton Ford - Fanlight Fanny Frank Sinatra - Ev'rybody's Twisting Jet Harris - Besame Mucho Danny Williams - Tears Adam Faith - Baby Take A Bow Tijuana Bass - The Lonely Bull (El Solo Torro) Mike Sarne - Just For Kicks Chucks - Loo-Be-Loo Rick Nelson - It's Up To You John Leyton - Cupboard Love Big Three - By The Way Houston Wells & The Marksmen - Only The Heartaches Frank Ifield - Mule Train Ken Dodd - Eight By Ten Dixie Cups - Chapel Of Love Everly Brothers - The Ferris Wheel Shadows - Rhythm And Greens Lorne Greene - Ringo Georgie Fame & The Blue Flames - In The Meantime Ivy League - That's Why I'm Crying Moody Blues - From The Bottom Of My Heart (I Love You) Bob Dylan - Maggie's Farm Jim Reeves - This World Is Not My Home Brenda Lee - Too Many Rivers Cliff Richard & The Shadows - The Time In Between Joan Baez - It's All Over Now Baby Blue Merseybeats - I Love You, Yes I Do Second City Sound - Tchaikovsky One Roy Orbison - Breakin' Up Is Breakin' My Heart Lee Dorsey - Get Out Of My Life, Woman Elvis Presley - Blue River Shadows - I Met My Girl Norma Tanega - Walkin' My Cat Named Dog Jr Walker & The All Stars - How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You) Wilson Pickett - Land Of 1000 Dances David Garrick - Dear Mrs Applebee Martha Reeves & The Vandellas - I'm Ready For Love Stevie Wonder - I'm Wondering Scott Walker - Jackie Elvis Presley - Your Time Hasn't Come Yet Baby Cliff Richard - Marianne Consortium - All The Love In The World Jefferson - Colour Of My Love Ken Dodd - Tears Won't Wash Away My Heartache Box Tops - Soul Deep Clodagh Rodgers - Biljo Edited July 13, 20169 yr by AH Gold
