This almost complete chart has kindly been provided by Kees Brinkerink. He compiled it by listening to various recordings of shows broadcast by Swinging Radio England during this week in 1966 and
with the help of his friend Hans Evers who made a note of some chart placings at the time. Can anyone fill in the last few gaps?
