September 10, 200915 yr on this day (sept 10th) 1964, The Kinks third single 'You Really Got Me', was at No.1 on the UK singles chart. Future Led Zeppelin founder and guitarist Jimmy Page played tambourine on the track. dvyDWGF290M 1964, Rod Stewart recorded his first single, a version of Willie Dixon's 'Good Morning Little School Girl.' Future Led Zeppelin bass player John Paul Jones played on the session. U_EZBK1Ebko the yardbirds also covered this as their first release.... well dodgy lyrics! interesting, 2 led zep referances...
September 10, 200915 yr As Tears Go By is one of my all-time fave songs and Marianne's version is far better than the Stones one. Wonder if Shame Shame Shame is the same song as Shirley & Company in '75. Edited September 10, 200915 yr by Crazy Chris

September 27, 200915 yr The longest runner in the chart was "I Love You Because" by Jim Reeves, it has been in the chart for 33 weeks. Of the future number ones of this year, only Roy Orbison is currently in the top 50, the other 4 are still to chart.
September 28, 200915 yr interestingly the beatles are only very slowly rising up the charts, and wont top the chart until after 'oh pretty woman', nice to see slow risers.. The Beatles were falling after having spent 3 weeks at the top in July/August. They entered at #3, rising to the top the next week. Hardly a slow riser! Just checked and apart from Love me Do and Please Please Me, all their singles reached their peak positions within three weeks of appearing on the charts. Edited September 28, 200915 yr by grebo69

The retrospective "official" charts compiled by Record Retailer had a strange sales chart week. The NME charts back then tended to see them enter higher and reach number one much quicker. In fact they entered at #1 with a few of their singles, something that only happened once on the RR chart, and that was only after the RR chart had become the official music business chart in 1969 (Get Back being the song).

Is there an online archive of NME charts coz I would like to take a look if there is.
September 29, 200915 yr the nme charts though were not the official charts, so does it matter?... im sure melody maker had their own chart too..
