Oscar Toney, Jr.--For Your Precious Love
|
Last week Tommy James had the number nine and 22 songs; this
week they plunge to 24 and 45, but this is offset by the debut of a third one
at number 43. None of these are
re-releases, b-sides or LP tracks—he’s just rapidly putting out new singles.
“A Day in the Life” drops from number six to number 29.
Just like last week, all the debuts were Hot 100 hits except
for one that couldn’t quite crack the main chart and stalled at number
101. I mentioned the Yellow Balloon in
my post on the 3-10-67 survey; they were originally a studio group assembled to
record the song of the same name. When
the song became successful, Don Grady (of My Three Sons and the
Windupwatchband) was enlisted to assemble a band to record the rest of an album
and play some shows. “Good Feelin’ Time”
was one of those songs, and it’ll peak here next week at number 47 and drop off
the survey.
Of the other debuts, the only one to do noticeably better
here than in BB is Glen Campbell’s “Gentle on My Mind,” which will reach number
33 versus 62 on the Hot 100 (and 30 on the Billboard Country chart). In the fall of ’68 Glen’s weekly TV show will
debut with “Gentle on My Mind” as the theme song, and the record will re-enter
at BB, getting to number 39 pop and 44 country, but not re-charting at KJR.
A few of the debuts will fall short here of their national
peaks: Stevie Wonder’s “I Was Made to Love Her” (2BB/10KJR), the Buckinghams’ “Mercy,
Mercy, Mercy” (5/25) and the Happenings’ version of the Al Jolson standard “My
Mammy” (13/29).
