UK Top 40 Week Ending 6th June 1970

Welcome to my complete top 40 for the 6th June 1970. In this week when I first started work at a 16 year old, we had Mary Hopkins, Who, Cliff, Moodies, Elvis and Gerry Monroe and even The England World Cup Squad 1970 with 'Back Home' in the charts amongst many others. Its quite a diverse chart as well so have fun. I'd bet you've not heard many of them on the radio since 1970 either. Remember track 1 in here is chart position 40 and track 40 in here is chart position 1. P.S. I used the album version of the Guess Who track 'American Woman'. Enjoy..

Seventies Music Charts No1s of 1975 (US) MAR

Here are all the No1 records from the year 1975 from the US charts of that year. It really is a who's who of 70s music, and turn it up really loud and enjoy. We continue with March of that year.

MARCH

Have You Never Been Mellow by Olivia Newton John

From the album of the same name, and won Olivia a Grammy for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, but although released as a single in the UK it never reached the charts. The song was written by John Farrer who was once a member of the Shadows.

Olivia  was also in a film this year called "The Other Side Of The Mountain", all about a female skiing champion is paralyzed in a tragic skiing accident. Her girlfriend is taken out of competition when she contracts polio.

Of course in 70s music Olivia would have a lot more hits on the way.
Lyrics to "Have You Never Been Mellow"
