* Some confusion at number 36. Ian wrote down it was You Can Bring Me All Your Heartaches by Buffalo Springfield. But that title was by Lou Rawls. The then current Buffalo Springfield release was For What It's Worth but that record had dropped off the chart two weeks earlier. Can anyone confirm what was in this position?
