* Ian noted a track he called “Step Down” at number 16. We were unable to trace a song of that name. Then Brian Long sent us a cutting from the 15th December 1966 issue of Record Retailer magazine which revealed that they thought Otis Redding's “Fa, Fa, Fa, Fa, Fa (Sad Song)” was at that position in the 270 chart. Could Ian have mis-heard the title? |
Many thanks to Ian Kellock for sharing this chart. Can anyone fill the gaps by providing the missing information?
