Beatles--Eleanor Rigby
|
The Beach Boys jump from 37 to 8, but that’s nothing
compared to the Beatles, debuting at number one with “Yellow Submarine.” The other side of the record, “Eleanor Rigby,”
debuts down at number 50, but it will quickly overtake “Yellow Submarine” and
remain on the survey four weeks longer.
Two of the week’s debuts were not Billboard hits. “I’m Normal” by The Emperor was an imitation
of “They’re Coming to Take Me Away” and will peak at number 13 next week. “Makin’ My Mind Up” by the Turtles was a
single released to radio stations in selected markets and then withdrawn; the
song later appeared on their Happy Together LP in a version with overdubbed
horns which were not on the single version.
I have never heard the single version, which will peak at number five
here. I do not know why it was pulled.
“Land of 1000 Dances” by Wilson Pickett, a number six
Billboard hit, will only make it to number 28 here.
Strangely, last week’s number five record, “Hungry” by Paul
Revere & the Raiders, falls completely off the survey this week, and will
not return.
The single version of "Makin" My Mind Up" and so much BETTER than the album version and IMPOSSIBLE to find on CD. What a shame!
