Mindgames van John Lennon is deze week de hoogste nieuwe op nummer 23. Veel mooie nieuwe binnenkomers deze week zoals Flashback van Paul Anka, The midnight train to Georgia van Gladys Knight, Sebastian van Cockney Rebel, etc. De Hollies staan stationair op 1 met Curly Billy. Frank Sinatra zingt deze week de treiterschijf : Let me try again. Het leuke “De hoogste tijd” van Der Rudi sluit deze week de Troef 20. Had Leo van der Goot het karnaval misschien al in z’n hoofd bij de keuze van zijn kanskaart of is dat een “foutje’ van de drukker? Ferguslie Park van Stealers Wheel staat hier in de platenkast en was toen de LP van de week.

Deze Top 50 kun je hier beluisteren:

Uur 1                          Uur 2                          Uur 3
