I Love No.1's - 1962

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

Last week Debbie Harry & Her Blondie Band romped away into the lead with 47 ticks, making Heart Of Glass your favourite number one of 1979. Close behind were Trev "Buggles" Horn & Gary Numan with 44 and 41 ticks respectively, but poor old Lena Martell languished behind in last place with only 5.

Today we trudge back to the eve of Beatlemania when Elvis was still King and Cliff was still er, Queen. It's 1962!

I really feel I'm missing out by not having heard Telstar, which is quite uncommon for this era.

It's flippin' ace. Seek it out, it's worth your effort!

It was also in "Teach Yourself Keyboard, Book 3".

That's how I know it.
