Posted by admin as 70s Hits, 70s music, Hits of the 70s, January, January 1970, Music of the 70s, top of the pops

Rolf Harriss 300x219 150x150 70s Music Chart January 3rd 1970 part twoThis is the second article on the BBC charts of the 3rd January 1970, as this was a chart that started in the 1970s it obviously had a great amount of music from the end of the 1960s, so that why on this one occasion we have two postings for the weekly chart.

We now countdown the charts from no.10 to no.1.

No. 10

Without You by Tom Jones

Sex bomb Tom Jones born in 1940 was so huge in the 1960s and would be a huge star in the 1970s, especially with his TV shows.

Article about Tom Jones

This week Tom appeared on the BBC singing “Delilah” in “Pop Goes The Sixties”.


N0. 9

Tracey by Cufflinks

New York born Ron Dante was the front man of this group of backing singers, although his name was not mentioned for reasons we will explain later. The record is often referred to as great bubblegum music.

Dante would work as a producer a few years later for Barry Manilow and “Mandy“.

N0. 8

Winter World Of Love by Engelbert Humperdinck

Lyrics to “Winter World Of Love”.

Named after a German composer, but originally born as Arnold George Dacey in 1936, and known as Tom Jones major competition, here he is with a beautiful song of the music of the 70s.

No. 7

All I have To Do Is Dream by Bobbie Gentry and Glenn Campbell

Article about Glenn Campbell

Bobbie born 1944 in 1975 married Jim Stafford who had a hit with “Spiders and Snakes”.

Glenn was to become the “Rhinestone Cowboy”.

This song was originally a hit for The Everly Brothers in 1958.

No. 6

Yester-Me, Yester-You,Yesterday by Stevie Wonder

Stevie was born blind in 1950 as Stevland Hardaway Judkins and has won twenty two Grammy awards, not that many really.

Lyrics for Yester-Me,Yester-You,Yesterday.

The song comes from the album “My Cherie La Mour”

No. 5

Melting Pot by Blue Mink

No. 4

Suspicious Minds by Elvis Presley

Written by Mark James and featuring heavy in Elvis comeback special in 1968, and of course Elvis died in 1977.

A hit again in January 1977

No. 3

Sugar sugar by Archies

We welcome back  Ron Dante who was also the voice behind this record based on a cartoon series, yet another bubble gum record.

Because he had another record in the charts by another record company his name had to be kept in the background.

Dont worry fellow singer on this record is Andy Kim who would have a number One later in the decade with “Rock Me Gently”.

No. 2

Ruby Don’t Take Your Love To Town by Kenny Rogers and the First Edition

Kenny Rogers article

Before he had the Chicken outlets, Kenny added his voice to this great record, and it was all done in one take.

Originally a hit for Johnny  Darrell in 1967.

No. 1

Two Little Boys by Rolf  Harris

Australian entertainer, artist and BBC show host Rolf forced his Saturday night TV show producer to allow him to sing this on his live TV show. He did and the public loved it and it became the very first Number One in the 1970s.

The record dates back to 1902 and tells the story of two boys during the American Civil war.

  • 70s People

    I am one of those baby boomer's, who had the pleasure, and the FUN to grow up in the amazing 1970s. The 70s music was so diverse, and the charts were for everyone from 8 to 80. That was when POP was fun, and the top forty really meant something as it was a shared experience. I have tried in this site to bring back the memories of the 70s, not just the pure pop, but also the heavy guys like Floyd and Black Sabbath. Everything had a place in the music of the 70s, and everything has a memory for one of us 1970s boomers.
