This summer, we’ve celebrated the 40th Anniversary of the Summer of Love in many different ways, with shows dedicated to album tracks, relevant singles, the Monterey Pop Festival and of course, an entire show dedicated to “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.”
While prepping for this program, I happened to be reviewing the singles chart from July 29, 1967, and I realized that we already covered a good number of these songs, but the remainder also seemed significant.
To paint an accurate picture, we decided that we could “count up” (i.e., start with #1) the singles chart, playing each of the songs we neglected in previous coverage. If you wish to hear the songs we DON’T play in the course of today’s show, just peruse through our previous shows and you’re sure to find them.
