Here are the Top Ten Best selling singles in the UK from the year 1971.



Top Hits of 1971


Ex Beatle George  Harrison, who died in 2001 from cancer, was later this year in Bangladesh to sing and meet Ravi Shanker.
This single came from his 1970 album “All Things Must Pass”, and the single is all about the Krishna God, but the record caused legal problems as it was claimed it was similar to an older record called “Hes So Fine” by The  Chiffons, however George said the song was actually inspired by the song “Oh Happy Day”.
Later George bought the rights to “He’s So Fine”, and had the last laugh.
