Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass--Spanish Flea


A lot of shakeup due to the two-week gap between surveys.  Eleven debuts this week, and the Statler Brothers’ “Flowers on the Wall” drops off from all the way up at number six.

High debuts for two tracks from the Beatles’ Rubber Soul album, “Michelle” at number two and “Norwegian Wood” at number 19.  Neither, of course, made the Billboard charts, since they weren’t singles.  Also a non-BB debut is Mel Carter’s “I Wish I Didn’t Love You So,” the b-side of number 50 Billboard hit “Love is All We Need.”  “I Wish I Didn’t Love You So” will peak here at number 24, and then KJR will turn the record over and start playing “Love is All We Need.”  Al Hirt’s “The Arena” Bubbled Under at number 129; it’ll get to number 17 at KJR.  Other significant disparities are the Supremes’ “My World is Empty Without You” (5BB/20KJR), “Andrea” by the Sunrays (41/21) and “Tijuana Taxi” by Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass (38/16).
