Andy Kim continues his Seattle success with “Rainbow Ride,” which will go to number two despite being only a number 49 BB hit.  Brian Hyland’s version of “Tragedy” will go to number six despite being only a number 56 BB hit.  John Sebastian’s folky ballad “She’s a Lady” will go to number 42 despite being only a number 84 BB hit.  O.C. Smith’s “Isn’t it Lonely Together” will go to number 35 despite being only a number 63 BB hit (okay, not so big a deal).  That leaves Tammy Wynette’s “Stand By Your Man,” a number one country hit and number 19 pop hit at Billboard, which will peak at number 21 here.
