El Chicano--Viva Tirado - Part 1


All of the six debuts hit the top 60 at Billboard.  One will do significantly better here than there: “Question” by the Moody Blues (21BB/7KJR).  Two will do a bit worse: “Get Ready” by Rare Earth (4/11) and “Viva Tirado” by El Chicano (28/46).  The others are all pretty close matches.
