The Saturday Survey

As expected, The Beatles follow The Rolling Stones into the top spot on this week's Super Chart.  "Paperback Writer" jumps from #7 to #1 while "Paint It Black" slips to #3.

In between them is another music icon, Frank Sinatra ... his latest record, "Strangers In The Night," now sits at #2.

In fact, this week's chart is filled with music icons ... some long standing, some first making their mark.

Simon and Garfunkel, The Lovin' Spoonful, Dusty Springfield and The Four Seasons all have Top Ten Hits. 

The Animals, Tommy James and the Shondells, The Temptations, James Brown, Ray Charles, The Association, The Dave Clark Five, The Platters, Jan and Dean, Johnny Rivers and Marvin Gaye each have hits scattered throughout The Top 40.

This week's top debut belongs to Paul Revere and the Raiders as "Hungry" premiers at #63.
