October 14, 200915 yr as sandie shaw scored the first of her 3 #1's the supremes became the highest new entry with their best known track (?) 'baby love' even though the (superior imho) 'where did our love go' was still riding high. i dont know the new entries by the honeycombes, barron knights, dave clarke! or tommy quick... i should know the first 3 but i dont. 'dont bring me down' and 'google eye' were 2 excellant (but dated) tracks, very contemporary, capturing the rhythm and blues flavour of the time. i bet you can guess whats coming! :lol: , yes, my fav new entry is the superb 'losing you' by dusty... :lol:
