Happenings--Where Do I Go/Be-In/Hare Krishna


Tim Hardin’s version of Bobby Darin’s “Simple Song of Freedom” was a number 50 BB hit that will make it up to number 14 here.  “Where Do I Go/Be-In/Hare Krishna” by the Happenings was a medley from Hair (told you there’d be more from Hair) that will get to number 37, beating its national number 66 peak.  On the other hand, “Commotion”/”Green River” is two sides of a single.  They’ll be listed together that way only through next week, when they’ll be at number 27, then “Commotion,” which was actually the b-side, will drop off and “Green River” will rise to number six on its own.  In Billboard, they peaked at number 30 and number two.
