Sam the Sham--I Couldn't Spell !!*@!
|
Sam the Sham, without the Pharaohs, will get to number 25
with his “I Couldn’t Spell !!*@!,” which was only number 120 in Billboard (the “!!*@!”
represents a raspberry sound). The Moody
Blues’ “Ride My See-Saw,” very well remembered as number 61 hits go, will get
up to number 30 here. The 5th
Dimension’s “Sweet Blindness” got to number 13 in Billboard but will only make
number 37 here. The other two debuts will
come relatively close to their national rankings—“White Room” by Cream
(6BB/11KJR) and “Those Were the Days” by Mary Hopkin, in my memory the most
omnipresent song of late 1968 next to “Hey Jude,” (2/3).
Back-to-back for the third consecutive week we have Al
Wilson and Canned Heat, a group with a member named Al Wilson.
