The #1 nearly everywhere title track of the 45 year old equivalent to Adele's 21 album. Paul Simon wrote this soft rock gospel hymn track after meeting up with John Lennon, who played him a tape of the then edited but unreleased Beatles early 1969 "Get Back" album (which became "Let It Be" after Phil Spector got his hands on it and ruined it). As Paul Simon was especially taken by the hymn like Paul McCartney composition ... which you'll be hearing very very soon....

7th February 1970


It's a second week on top for Bridge Over Troubled Water as all other album tracks climb, notably Cecilia into the top 10, giving Simon & Garfunkel 3 at once. Brotherhood Of man get a first top 10, John Lennon a 2nd solo top 5. In a quiet week for newies, Junior Walker gets the highest, with other Motown acts popping in with B sides lower down. In my charts of what I liked and knew back in the day, there's an expansion to 20 as I start to hear a lot more stuff in Singapore than I did previously - probably due to the new stereo record player mum and dad bought, which had a radio. Our first ever stereo system. Music never sounded so good!
