The Countdown Continues: #60 - #51

#60 - WAR by EDWIN STARR

#59 - SUMMER IN THE CITY by THE LOVIN' SPOONFUL
Winner of every "Favorite Songs Of Summer" Readers Poll we've ever taken!

#58 - TURN, TURN, TURN by THE BYRDS
Back-to-back #1 Hits for The Byrds ... from Dylan to the Bible!

#57 - AMERICAN WOMAN by THE GUESS WHO

#56 - VENUS by SHOCKING BLUE

#55 - MAMA TOLD ME NOT TO COME by THREE DOG NIGHT
That's three in a row from 1970 ... and four out of six if you count "War".  All from the tail end of our eligibility period!

#54 - RESPECT by ARETHA FRANKLIN
(And almost as much fun as spelling out H-E-N-R-Y)

#53 - WEDDING BELL BLUES by THE FIFTH DIMENSION

#52 - SOUL AND INSPIRATION by THE RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS

#51 - HELP! by THE BEATLES
(from their second film ... the one in color)
