The Beatles notch their 22nd week at #1 on The Super Chart as "Eight Days A Week" holds the top position for the second straight week. (That's 22 weeks at #1 out of a possible 60 ... all since America first discovered ... and fell in love with ... The Fab Four ... talk about your chart domination!)
The Top Five Records in the country all have bullets this week: "The Birds And The Bees" by Jewel Akens, "Stop! In The Name Of Love" by The Supremes, "King Of The Road" by Roger Miller and "Can't You Hear My Heartbeat" by Herman's Hermits sit behind The Fab Four at numbers 2, 3, 4 and 5.
Shirley Bassey's stirring vocal version of "Goldfinger" cracks The Top Ten this week, moving up to #9. Jr. Walker and the All-Stars are still watching their record "Shotgun" rise (it moves from #15 to #11) and The Dave Clark Five, The Impressions, Georgie Fame and Vic Dana all watch their records move from the 20's to the teens.
Meanwhile, The Beach Boys' version of "Do You Wanna Dance" leaps 18 places from #38 to #20. Elvis' latest, "Do The Clam," is also on the move, climbing from #30 to #21.
But it's "Tired Of Waiting For You" by The Kinks and "I'm Telling You Now" by Freddie and the Dreamers that rank as the big movers this week ... The Kinks climb 39 notches while Freddie and the Dreamers dance their way up from #92 to #43, a move of 49 spots! The British Invasion still appears to be alive and well!
Speaking of which, the top debut this week belongs to another British act making their first US chart appearance ... Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders premier at #67 with "Game Of Love," a record that will eventually top the charts as well.
