A song written by McGuinn and Clark of the Byrds before the band was formed then rejected by the band so it was never formally released by them although demos existed.

The Turtles picked it up to record and had a big hit in the USA. After which the Byrds decided they would record it after all and it appeared on their 1969 so a "re-cover" as it's been called.

The UK would have to wait for cover versions by Salt N Pepa and then the Lightning Seeds before it became a hit.

In any case:

Very good week for new entries, include very underrated Gene and Debbe and country charts hit from Connie Eaton.

New entry in US, # 90 on this week. Possibly John (popchartfreak) will like to vote for it.

Bobbie Gentry and Glen Campbell - Let It Be Me



Gene and Debbe - Memories Are Made Of This

Barbra Streisand - My Man

Connie Eaton - He's A Night Owl

Also Earl's # 1 "Stand By Your Man" was released as single in UK on this week, possibly I will put her in my top 30 list too.

19th January 1969

It's 3 weeks on top for Dizzy and a static top 10, bar Herman's Hermits replacing other kiddie fave Manfred Mann. Big climbs for Martha Reeves, Dionne Warwick & Nina Simone, and yet more old Motown entries from Marv Johnson, who I saw sing his I'll Pick A Rose (and You Got What It Takes) on a Motown package tour back in the 80's, & 2 from Marvin & Tammi (not old), plus a Motown cover from Jose Feliciano as the highest new entry outdoing the Supremes latest to boot. 

Todd Rundgren is back with his future 1973 West Coast solo smash song Hello It's Me - it's not quite as brilliant as the '73 version, but it has it's charm cos it's a great song, in at 50. That leaves Classics IV getting a 3rd chart entry, Traces. Very quiet week again overall, though, few fresh major classics turning up. Back in the day, my chart-topper was Fox On The Run, with Donald Peers highest new entry - how times change with maturity! Dancing In The Street is 20 in both charts though, synchronicity at last!
