The City Sixty, 3rd - 10th December 1965


As before, the original document only lists the song titles and does not give the artists' names. We have attempted to fill in the gaps but, in some cases, have had to make an educated guess about which track is being referred to. If you spot any errors, please get in touch.
 
There are fourteen new entries this week, with one going straight to the top, plus four re-entries.

* The same record by The Kinks is shown as both number 26 and 30. We can tell from next week's chart listing that it should be at number 30 but we have no way of knowing what ought to have been listed at 26.
 
** The tracks on the “No Living Without Loving” EP were: There's No Living Without Your Loving, Let's Go Get Stoned, Tired Of Trying, Bored With Lying, Scared Of Dying and I Put A Spell On You. All are available here.
 
*** New in at number 53 is a song called “Where Does Love Go”. There were a number of versions of this song released, including two by famous actors - Charles Boyer and Roger Moore. The first one to be released was the American hit by Boyer with the British cover, by Moore, coming out a couple of weeks later. That was the version that Radio London playlisted. Looking ahead two weeks we can see that the City Sixty of 17th December lists two (un-credited) versions of the song. Did they go with Charles Boyer first and then add Roger Moore when they saw it picking up airplay elsewhere? Or did they go with Roger Moore first and then add Charles Boyer to give a bit of variety? Does anyone remember?


Our thanks to Brian Long.
