Two of the biggest acts during the first decade of Rock'n'Roll, Elvis
Presley and The Everly Brothers, had held sway the previous week, but now emerging
UK band The Hollies forced their way through to the top spot with I'm Alive.
The single had climbed from #4 to #1, pushing both Presley's Crying In The
Chapel and The Everlys' Price Of Love down a notch to #2 and #3 respectively.
The Top 5 was completed by Burt Bacharach's Trains And Boats And Planes, up
from #5 to its peak of #4, and Colours by Donovan (moving #10-#5).
Cliff Richard: The Singles Collection
There were comparitively modest chart performances by The Kinks and The Who
on the rundown of 39 years ago. Set Me Free (up 4 to #9) was the former's
latest Top 10 hit, but it would progress no further. Meanwhile, Anyway Anyhow
Anywhere by The Who had temporarily gone into reverse; its #24 debut was
followed by a 13-place jump to #11, but now it dropped back to #13.
Chart regulars the Dave Clarke Five's Come Home was languishing in the lower
half of the Top 20, moving up 3 places to a #16 high. Immediately below
them, Cliff Richard was on course to miss the Top 10 for the first time in 26
releases with On My Word (moving #21-#17 on its way to #12 in early July). His
erstwhile backing band The Shadows were themselves just inside the Top 20 at
#19 with Stingray. The records occupying the positions from #16 to #20 were all
on the Columbia label; in addition to the Dave Clark Five, Cliff and The
Shadows, balladeering duo Peter And Gordon were at #18 with their former #2
smash True Love Ways and The Yardbirds moved #32-#20 with their future #2 smash
Heart Full Of Soul.
The Man In Black: The Very Best of Johnny Cash
The Walker Brothers enjoyed a brace of UK chart-toppers in the mid-1960s,
but Love Her was not one of them. Having risen to #20, the single now dropped
back to #21. Similarily, the Moody Blues' From The Bottom Of My Heart (climbing
7 places to #22) failed to emulate the #1 achievement of their own Go Now.
Another struggler, The Beach Boys'Help Me Rhonda, moved up from #30 to #28 on
its 4th week of chart action.
At the bottom end of the Top 40, three Bob Dylan-penned hits held the #33,
#34, and #35 positions - with another at #39. Soon-to-be UK #1 Mr. Tambourine
Man by The Byrds was up 5 to #33, Johnny Cash's take on It Ain't Me Babe fell
6 to #34, while Dylan's own Maggie's Farm also climbed 5 places from its
entry position of #40 - passing his outgoing hit Subterranean Homesick Blues
(down from #26 to #39) on the way.
