June 26th



"Windy" by The Association takes over the top spot this week in its sixth week on the chart.  But man, what a Top Ten this is … proof again of just how INCREDIBLY strong a year 1967 was musically.  

Check this out:   

#1 = Windy by The Association  



#2 = She'd Rather Be With Me by The Turtles



#3 = Groovin' by The Young Rascals



#4 = Little Bit O'Soul by The Music Explosion



#5 = Respect by Aretha Franklin



#6 = San Francisco by Scott McKenzie



#7 = Can't Take My Eyes Off You by Frankie Valli



#8 = Let's Live For Today by The Grass Roots



#9 = Come On Down To My Boat by Every Mother's Son



#10 = Don't Sleep In The Subway by Petula Clark 



I'd put that Top Ten against virtually any other in pop music history … they just don't come any finer than this!!!  

The #1 Album in the country this week is "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" by The Beatles.  By all counts, it's a masterpiece … and it will top the chart for fifteen consecutive weeks, becoming the album of the summer, the decade and (some might argue) of all time.
