Discovery: Four Seasons—Alone

Two high debuts this week, but both are records of which KJR had been playing the other side.  Lesley Gore’s “I Don’t Wanna Be a Loser” replaces its b-side on the chart, while the Beach Boys “I Get Around” joins “Don’t Worry Baby” which remains on the survey as a separate listing.  Sometimes double-sided hits get listed separately, sometimes they’re listed together.

Nothing else really worth noting—all the other debuts were Billboard hits and none were dramatically more popular or less popular at KJR.
