* Thanks to correspondent Gareth Jones for his assistance identifying this track.
 
** Ian has noted a “David Barry?” at number 32 with no title given. He might have meant Dave Berry, whose single Stranger was recently on the Radio 270 chart but we think he probably mis-heard the name of the then-unknown David Bowie whose Laughing Gnome was released on 14th April 1967. Per Berggren agrees.
 
*** Thanks to Mary Payne for the information that “Sir Sidney Saitheswaite” was Radio Luxembourg producer and jazz musician Derek ‘Eggy’ Ley.


Many thanks to Ian Kellock for sharing this chart and to Per A Berggren for providing some missing information.
