HOUR 3  11 (12) TO 11: 30s and 31s (BILLBOARD THIS WEEK IN 1964-1969)

Because this is Sunday Sampler #930 on March 31. As I often do with these semi-random playlists, I look at my chart books for the 60s, 70s & 80s to compare. These are what charted at #30 and #31 this week in 1964, 1965, etc. I thought the sampling from the 60s years was the best, and so I'm playing that playlist tonight in Hour 3. 

But -- here are the playlists for the 70s & 80s that were passed over. If you REALLY would like to hear one (or both) of them over the next week or two, I will do that for you. But you gotta let me know at sundaysampler@gmail.com.
