13th June 1970

It's a first week on top for Carpenters, knocking off fellow easy Listening act Bread, giving them a first chart-topper (but not a last) and Bacharach/David a first number 1 since Bobbie Gentry too I'll Never Fall In Love Again to the top. The Raiders get a first (and not the last) top 10, Gone Movin' On, as The Archies debut at 29 with a minor hit single in the USA, Sunshine, but one which I loved from the show and recorded onto reel-to-reel tape direct from the TV, and the B side, which appeared on my first-ever EP purchase The Archies, Over And Over, also pops in. 

Other than that it's a quiet period for new music, Stevie Wonder's Signed Sealed Delivered is in at 53, continuing his long run of hits, Shirley Bassey gets a rare mention with her version of George Harrison's Something, Jose Feliciano returns with a nice version of CCR's Susie-Q, and Crosby Stills & Nash get a second track, with Neil Young's Ohio commenting on deaths of 4 student protestors against the Viet-Nam war at Kent State University, an event I remember, especially one photograph. The war wasn't that far away from Singapore, relatively-speaking, and definitely made the news there on TV and English-language press The Straits Times, or via UK newspapers that were imported in batches for Forces families, usually the Daily Mirror.
