Comment:
The Beatles, like in the Spring of this year, were still a phenomena in the U.S. I chose to use 3 of their charted hits from this season. I used bigger hits by The 4 Seasons, but only 2 of their 4 hits from that season. I chose to cut a few songs from this mix because I discovered that I'd used them on previous mixes. However, that gave me the opportunity to make way for some lesser known songs. Some songs that didn't make the cut: Al Martino's Always Together, Dean Martin's Everybody Loves Somebody, Del Shannon's Handy Man, Jumpin' Gene Simmons' Haunted House, and the Supremes' Where Did Our Love Go (I'm not a huge Supremes fan). The mix clocks in at 78m55s in length and the average chart number for the entire mix is #20.1 (as usual you can access the mix by clicking the link on the first song title).<!-- -->
Feedback:
Great one Joe. Lots of great tunes but the 10-16 and 20-22 runs are special
I am a real sucker for all those Dionne Warwick/Burt Bacharach pairings (and not just because of Meaning of Life)
It's all good....
Always fascinating to see what was burning up the charts in other countries.Amazing to think that the Dave Clark 5 were so popular in the US.I think they had more no.1's there than in the UK. And I had no idea that I'll Cry Instead was released as a single in the US.Love tracks 6,8,12,14,15. Fine stuff.
i find it amazing that don't worry baby only reached #24. it all looks super.
aw, i love it.
