Dit is de eerste smalle en langwerpige uitgave van de RNI Top 50. De hoogste nieuwe is Brown Sugar van de Stones op 14. Rosetta van Fame & Price komt binnen op nummer 28. Op 43 horen we Love her madly van de Doors voor ’t eerst in de Top 50 en op 45 komt de Jimi Hendrix Experience binnen met Angel. A day begins van Greenfield en Cook is deze week de hekkensluiter als laagste nieuwe. Mozart Symphony No. 40 staat onveranderd op nummer 1. Twee mooie treiterschijven deze week, Poetas Andaluces van Aquaviva en I am ... I said van Neil Diamond. De kanskaart van Joost den Draaier is een oudje uit 1967 : For what it’s worth van Buffalo Springfield.
