David Bowie’s “Changes” drops off, but it’ll be back next week.

Six debuts, all of which made the top 25 in Billboard, and all of which will make the top 25 here. Nothing too dramatic as far as differences—the biggest is “Give Ireland Back to the Irish,” Paul McCartney’s first record credited to Wings, a number 21 national hit that will reach number eleven. The others: “Family of Man” by Three Dog Night (12BB/19KJR), Love Unlimited’s “Walkin’ in the Rain With the One I Love” (14/24), “Baby Blue” by Badfinger (14/25), Aretha Franklin’s “Day Dreaming” (5/5), and “Nice to Be With You” by Gallery (4/1).
