Hal Blaine--Topsy '65
|
A great week for debuts.
First of all we have local hits by the twin giants of Tacoma rock: the
Wailers will peak here at number 26 with their updated version of “Dirty
Robber,” which they had originally recorded in 1959, and the Sonics will get to
number 34 with “Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark.”
Another non-BB record is “Topsy ’65,”session drummer Hal Blaine’s
version of Cozy Cole’s 1958 instrumental hit.
Dusty Springfield’s “In the Middle of Nowhere” will get to number 18
here, next week, while in Billboard it only made number 120. And the Kingsmen’s “Louie Louie.” It was originally a hit in the winter of 63/64,
and it slipped back into the Hot 100 at number 97 in May of 1966. But in between, here in 1965, it also
resurfaced in a few cities—Detroit in March, San Jose in May, Seattle in July,
and then Oklahoma City and Denver. It’ll
peak here at number 17 in two weeks.
Mel Carter’s “Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me” drops off the
survey this week, after five weeks and a peak of number 23; it’ll remain off
next week, then come back for six more weeks, getting no higher than number
31. Its very unusual week-by-week chart
progression is 38-23-47-45-50-off-off-44-34-34-31-33-41.
