The top six records stay the same, just shifting slightly.

Eight debuts—all of which were top 25 Billboard hits. Most will perform here very close to how they did nationally; the biggest improvement is the Faces’ “Stay With Me” (17BB/9KJR), while the biggest shortfall will be “Don’t Say You Don’t Remember” by Beverly Bremers (15/30).
