Well over three decades before the whole 00s TV talent shows producing sh*te after sh*te muzak thanks to Simon Cowell & co; Paul McCartney did it in an effortlessly superior manner with the 1968 winner of Opportunity Knocks with a song he wrote, produced and played most of the music on for the future first wife of record producer Ton Visconti.

Released in January, it took 3 months for Led Zeppelin's debut album to break into the UK charts. But this week saw it debut at #9 - the first of 81 weeks it has appeared so far, most recently in 2015. Three cuts from the LP make my list this week, including the groundbreaking "Communication Breakdown".

[popchartfreak]

5th April 1969

It's 3 weeks on top for The Boxer as my then-number-one track is up to 2 for Mary Hopkin in a quiet top 10. Good climbs for The Ronettes' future Pearls hit to 12, and Ruby & The Romantics' future Carpenters hit to 14, & Johnny Nash gets a 3rd top 20 with Sam Cooke's Cupid. Another reggae cover (Tchaikovsky) for The Cats enters at 75, and a future hit in 1972 for Mardi Gras, and a much better uptempo version, is in for Marvin Gaye's slow soulful Too Busy Thinking About My Baby at 54.

Highest newie is Fleetwood Mac's Man Of The World - OK it's not charting yet, but I watched that episode of Top Of The Pops for this week at the time, and pretty much for the rest of the spring & summer I watched every episode until the end of August - at which point there was a 2-year-gap before I saw another episode. Cream are back with a Badge - they "don't need no steenkeen badgers"! Thanks Mel Brooks & Richard Prior. Bill Deal is back for his second chart entry of '69, with a future Northern Soul hit for Guy Darrell in 1973, I've Been Hurt, Betty Everett & Aretha keep the big soul ballads coming, & the Philly sound is back with Archie Bell & co, Curtis Mayfield is back again with his Impressions, "just like that", & Diane & Mary & Cindy scrape in with a bit of a drop in quality, The Composer pushing out the epic Love Child.
