Dawn (before Tony Orlando got billing) makes a big jump.
It’s been a long time since we’ve had eight debuts. Three did not make the Billboard Hot 100 or
Bubbling Under charts, because Christmas records were relegated to the separate
Christmas Singles chart: obviously the Carpenters and Jackson Five songs, plus
Bobby Sherman’s “Goin’ Home” was also a Christmas record, though it actually
didn’t make the Christmas chart either. (But
his Christmas album made the Christmas Album chart.) Here they will peak at number 18, number 38,
and number 41 respectively.
Barbra Streisand’s “Stoney End,” a national number six hit,
will stop at number 20 here, perhaps because Seattle loved Peggy Lipton’s
version two years previously. Stephen
Stills’ “Love the One You’re With,” number fourteen BB, will only get to number
27. On the other hand, the Grass Roots,
riding a streak of always doing better in Seattle than nationally, will get to
number three with the number 15 Billboard hit “Temptation Eyes,” and
Pennsylvania band the Buoys will spend 24 weeks on the survey, five of them at
number one, with the number 17 national hit about cannibalism, “Timothy.”
That leaves Dave Edmunds and “I Hear You Knocking” as the
only debut that will do about the same here as nationally (4BB/5KJR).
