EJ's & Co.: With Hugo Winterhalter's orchestra. An instrumental version by The Cambridge Strings and Singers charted in 1961 with the title "Theme from Tunes Of Glory." ("Tunes of Glory" was a 1960 British film.) Forever, I will love you forever Yes, I will The mandolins are playin' The moon above is sayin' It's love #02) Anka, Paul: "Tonight My Love, Tonight" (1961) [13] {-} With arranger/conductor Sid Feller. My love is warmer than a day in spring (How bright?) Brighter than a diamond ring (How great?) Greater than a mighty king #03) Brooks, Donnie: "Mission Bell" (1960) [7] {-} "(How high?) Higher than a mission bell." Coasters: Born John Abahosh. Well, baby you treat me, you treat me bad No no, I know, know you don't mean it now Sometimes I roam But I'll be comin' back home #04) Brown, James, and the Famous Flames: "I Got The Feelin'" (1968) [6] {1} Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! "The Hardest-Working Man in Show Business" turned 65 this year. Of his more than 100 singles to make the '60s or '70s pop or R&B charts, this was his second-highest charting pop single after "I Got You (I Feel Good)" (#3 in 1965/66). And every conversation I can now recall Concerned itself with me And nothing else at all #05) Clark, Roy: "Yesterday, When I Was Young" (1969) [19] {-} Guitar- and banjo-playing country superstar Clark appeared weekly on the '60s-'70s television show "Hee Haw." Howard Teitelbaum & Bonnie Teitelbaum: Written by the great Armenian/French vocalist, Charles Aznavour. She said she'd always been a dancer She worked at fifteen clubs a day #06) Cocker, Joe: "She Came In Through The Bathroom Window" (1969/70) [30] {-} Paul McCartney, who wrote this song, originally wanted Joe to record it. Cocker did - in his own inimitable style - shortly after the Beatles' version appeared on "Abbey Road." Claimed George Harrison of the song: "Terrific lyrics, but it's hard to explain what they're all about." Coasters: Born John Robert Cocker. Hiding in shadowy corners Oh, we are dancing where no one knows our faces Sharing love stolen in the night #07) Corsairs, The, featuring Jay "Bird" Uzzell: "Smoky Places" (1961/62) [12] {10} A vocal foursome of three Uzzell brothers and a cousin. This song was on the Billboard Hot 100 chart when John Glenn first orbited the earth, in Mercury 6. They gave me the whole, wide world Wrapped up in one little girl My darling, when the angels sent you #08) Crests, The: "The Angels Listened In" (1959) [22] {14} Vocal group formed at a Manhattan junior high school in 1955. Johnny Maestro joined as lead vocalist in 1956 and remained until 1960. He'll never be a big businessman He always buys on the installment plan He sure ain't the boy I've been dreaming of #09) Crystals, The: "He's Sure The Boy I Love" (1962/63) [11] {18} Written by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil; produced by Phil Spector. Spector brought in Darlene Wright (later Darlene Love), a then- unknown session singer, to take the lead on "He's A Rebel" and then used her again for this song. Credit nevertheless went to his creation, the Brooklyn vocal group, the Crystals, who'd already had two top 20 songs. Jamie Lubin: Darlene Love's autobiography is now out. I rode by a house with the windows lighted up Lookin' pretty as a Christmas tree And I said to myself as I rode by myself #10) Fisher, Eddie: "Everybody's Got A Home But Me" (1955/56) [20] {-} Perhaps the biggest singing idol of early '50s bobbysoxers, Edwin Fisher continued to have a new top 100 hit nearly every month or two through mid-1957, many of them movie or show tunes. This song was from the Broadway musical "Pipe Dream." If my friends should ask for me Here at home is where I'll be There's no one I'd care to see #11) Francis, Connie: "Breakin' In A Brand New Broken Heart" (1961) [7] {-} Written by Neil Sedaka and Howard Greenfield, as were a few of her big hits. How I wish I could forget Those happy yesteryears That have left a rosary of tears Your face beams In my dreams 'Spite of all I do #12) Goodman, Benny, Trio, The, with Rosemary Clooney: "Memories Of You" (1956) [20] {-} Throughout the 1930s and 1940s Goodman's classic jazz clarinet graced singles that spent 52 weeks atop the popular charts. Ainger/actress Clooney's string of top popular hits lasted from 1951 through 1957. She has appeared recently on the television show "ER" (starring her nephew George Clooney) and just recorded a new album. L'Equipe: From the 1955 Steve Allen movie, "The Benny Goodman Story." EJ's & Co.: Others who have charted with the song are Louis Armstrong & His Sebastian New Cotton Club Orchestra (1930), The Ink Spots (1940), and Hugo Winterhalter and his Orchestra (1956). (Eight:) Kiss me when you hold me tight (Kiss me when you hold me tight) (Nine:) Treat me sweet and gentle (Treat me sweet and gentle) #13) Harvey and the Moonglows: "Ten Commandments Of Love" (1958) [22] {9} Harvey Fuqua (nephew of Charlie Fuqua of the Ink Spots), along with non-original Moonglows Marvin Gaye, Reese Palmer, James Knowland, and Chester Simmons. Fuqua created The Spinners in 1961. EJ's & Co.: The last charted song for the R&B quartet, although Fuqua went on to team up with Etta James, as Etta & Harvey, on a couple of singles in 1960. Also recorded by Peaches & Herb (1968) and Little Anthony and The Imperials (1969). A spoken version by actor James MacArthur ("Dano" of "Hawaii Five-O") also peaked at #94 on the pop chart in 1963. They won't tell your secret No, the roses won't tell your secret #14) Jaynetts, The: "Sally, Go 'Round The Roses" (1963) [2] {4} Female vocalists from the Bronx. Really Rockin' in Boston: From Grace Slick's autobiography: "Pretty soon, the only 'outside' song we [The Great Society] did was 'Sally Go 'Round the Roses.' The Motown-style arrangement lent itself nicely to the East Indian rhythms Darby [Slick; brother in-law] and Peter [van Gelder; saxophone] loved; it has a sort of repeated mantra in the title chorus." EJ's & Co.: Written by Zell Sanders and Lona Stevens; produced by Abner Spector (no relation to Phil Spector). The only charted hit for this female R&B group from the Bronx. The meaning of this eerie song continues to baffle its listeners; what secret won't the roses tell? One theory is that Sally is an unwed mother who has been forced to give up her child: "the saddest thing in the whole wide world is to see your baby with another girl." Love, like a mountain springtime Flashing through the rivers of my mind It's what I feel for you (Armadillo) #15) Jefferson Airplane: "Ballad Of You & Me & Pooneil" (1967) [42] {-} Written by group founding member Paul Kantner and on the album "After Bathing At Baxter's." Anyone who can determine (from the somewhat inscrutable and barely distinguishable lyrics) who or what Pooneil is, is a better man (or woman?) than I. I'll provide for you Should there be a stormy sea I'll turn the tide for you Oh and I'll never, no I'll never let you go #16) Jones, Tom: "With These Hands" (1965) [27] {-} A #7 hit for Eddie Fisher and #29 for Johnnie Ray in 1953. He was poor as a beggar But he rode like a king Sometimes in the evenin' I could hear him sing: "I got to walk that lonesome valley I got to walk it by myself" #17) Kingston Trio, The: "Reverend Mr. Black" (1963) [8] {15} The trio was at the forefront of the 1960s folk music movement. The chorus from this recording is from the old folk song "Lonesome Valley," a hit in 1931 for the Carter Family. I make believe that we still talk as usual People always stop and stare I guess they just don't see you there Don't they know you'll always be right here #18) Lee, Brenda: "As Usual" (1963/64) [12] {n/c} Just 15 when "I'm Sorry" hit the pop charts, Lee was 19 when this, one of her last top 20 songs, appeared on Billboard's Hot 100. "Little Miss Dynamite," after becoming one of the best-selling female popular singers of the '60s, went on to become a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame last year. While looking up above I wished upon a star And prayed for a blessing from above Well, if my wish should come true Until our life is through I'll have you near to have, to hold, and to love #19) Mello-Kings: "Tonite, Tonite" (1957,1961) [77] {-} Originally the Mellotones, this doo-wop group changed its name in order not to conflict with the existing Mello-Tones group. Now I must hang up the phone I can't hear you in this noisy railroad station all alone #20) Monkees, The: "Last Train To Clarksville" (1966) [1] {-} Their first single, written by Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart. Howard Teitelbaum & Bonnie Teitelbaum: Although not widely perceived as such at the time of its release, this was actually intended as an anti-war song (i.e., meet me at the station bacause I'm about to ship out to Vietnam), according to Boyce and Hart. EJ's & Co.: Written by Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart. The story goes that Hart was inspired to write the words after hearing The Beatles' "Paperback Writer," and mishearing the title words as "Take the Last Train To." The TV quartet had quick success: "Last Train," their first single, was a million-selling #1 hit, and was followed by the group's biggest hit, the Neil Diamond composition "I'm A Believer." You walked away The pain began I knew I'd never Love again #21) Orbison, Roy: "I'm Hurtin'" (1960/61) [27] {-} With Bob Moore's orchestra. And I need a love that will be true, oh Your sweet, tender lips, you know they tells me that You're the one for me Darling, how can I forget? #22) Redding, Otis: "Security" (1964) [97] {n/c} Written by Otis. From his album "Pain In My Heart." Time to live life like a lover Time to keep time from keepin' you down Time to get yourself together #23) Spanky and Our Gang: "Making Every Minute Count" (1967) [31] {-} "Spanky" McFarlane joined John Phillips, MacKenzie Phillips, and Dennis Doherty to form the new Mamas & Papas in 1982. Round Like a circle in a spiral Like a wheel within a wheel Never ending or beginning On an ever-spinning reel Like a snowball down a mountain Or a carnival balloon Like a carousel that's turning Running rings around the moon #24) Springfield, Dusty: "The Windmills Of Your Mind" (1969) [31] {-} The 1968 Academy Award-winning song from the Steve McQueen- Faye Dunaway movie "The Thomas Crown Affair." Written by Michel Legrand and Alan & Marilyn Bergman; sung in the movie by Noel Harrison. Its melody borrows liberally from the second movement of Mozart's "Symphonia Concertante." Producer Jerry Wexler picked this song for the "Dusty in Memphis" album. Dusty, who was in the folk trio The Springfields from 1960 through 1963 before going solo, was just recently voted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The other just-recently elected members: Early Influences: R&B singer Charles Brown and country/western group Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys; Non-performer: Beatles producer George Martin; Performers: Paul McCartney, Billy Joel, Bruce Springsteen, Del Shannon, Curtis Mayfield, and the Staple Singers. Team Asia: The best version we know of was by Vanilla Fudge. What makes him so good? #25) Who, The: "Pinball Wizard" (1969) [19] {-} From their classic rock opera "Tommy." "Pin Ball Wizard" was sung by Rod Stewart on the 1972 album "Tommy/as performed by the London Symphony Orchestra and Chambre Choir with Guest Soloists." Elton John performed this song in the movie version of "Tommy." ------------ Tie-Breakers ------------ Well, there's gonna be a time When I'm gonna change your mind So you might as well resign yourself to me Oh, yeah #T1) Beatles, The: "I'll Get You" (1964) [-] {-} The flip side of "She Loves You." One of only 4 B-sides of 45s in the 1960s penned by and simply listed as by "The Beatles" that did not follow up their A-sides with top 100 chart entries of their own (along with "This Boy," "I'm Down" [#101], and "Old Brown Shoe"). Howard Teitelbaum & Bonnie Teitelbaum: Recorded July 1, 1963 under the working title, "Get You In The End." Gonna search all the forests And look and look in every tree Well, if you feel somethin' heavy on your fishing hook If you see a funny face in your comic book #T2) Lewis, Jerry Lee: "It'll Be Me" (1957) [-] {-} "... / Baby, it'll be me / And I'll be looking for you." The flip side of "The Killer's" first single, "Whole Lot Of Shakin' Going On" (Sun Records #267). This was issued during Sun's heyday, which produced Carl Perkins' "Blue Suede Shoes" (Sun #234), Johnny Cash and the Tennessee Two's "I Walk The Line" (Sun #241), and Roy Orbison and the Teen Kings' "Ooby Dooby" (Sun #242). L'Equipe: A great cover version by Cliff Richard and the Shadows was a huge hit in the U.K. ______________________________________________________________________________ This chart ranks the songs/artists from most recognized to least recog- nized.
