Well after a short stay of Wo weeks in the number one position, Connie Francis
has fallen to the number three spot with her MGM recording of EVERYBODY* S SOME
* BODY’S FOOL. This means that we must have a new number one tune this week, and
I don’t think that it will suprise too many people to see that the current num
ber one position is filled by that song called ALLEY-OOP by the Hollywood
Argyles.Still holding on in the imsiber 15> position are Dante and the Evergreens
and their recording of ALLEY-OOP. Another tune making it for the first time in
the top ten was Roy Oberison aid ONLY THE LONELY which this week is a Bill
board star performer in the number 6 position up from the number 11 position
last week, and it has been on the hot one hundred for five weeks* This tun^
could possibly make it to the number one spot in a couple weeks. Another new
comer to the top ten was the current number 10 tune, a star performer up : from
20 last week, the Everly Brothers and their latest for Cadence, WHEN WILL I BE'
LOVED.
Looking at the rest of the hot one hundred the tune that made the biggest jump
was last weeks pick to click, Brian Hyland on the Leader recording label with
ITSY BITSY TEENI WEENIE YELLOW POLKA DOT BIKINI. This tune has only bben on
the charts for two weeks, last week in the number 59 position, this week a star .
performer at number 20. Fats Dcmino is moving up the charts with what could be
a two sided hit for the fat man. WALKING TO NEW.ORLEANS is currently number 21
