1974, John Lennon was at No.1 in the US singles chart with 'Whatever Gets You Through The Night.' Elton John played on the session and made a deal with Lennon that if the song reached No.1, Lennon would have to appear on stage live with Elton. Lennon kept his side of the deal and appeared live with Elton. They played three songs together: ‘I Saw Her Standing There,’ ‘Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds’ and ‘Whatever Gets You Through the Night.’ Backstage after the concert, Lennon got back with Yoko Ono after a temporary split.

Sharkey followed up the single with Tench written 'You Little Thief', this time about Tench's relationship with McKee.

1985, Starship started a two week run at No.1 on the US singles chart with 'We Built This City', it made No.12 in the UK.

1985, U2 launched their own record label 'Mother Records.' The intent was 'to unearth fresh musical talent in Ireland' and the label released several one-off single releases for The Hothouse Flowers, In Tua Nua and Cactus World News amongst others.

1996, The Beatles 'Anthology 3' went to No.1 on the UK album chart. The album included rarities and alternative tracks from the final two years of the band's career, ranging from the initial sessions for The Beatles (also known as The White Album) to the last sessions for Let It Be and Abbey Road in later 1969 and early 1970.

I preferred Ramsey Lewis’ version of “The In Crowd”.

I first heard the Ramsey Lewis version on a juke box in Darmstadt, Germany in September, 1965. But I still prefer the KRLA version by Dobie Gray from March, 1965.

Gene Pitney: "It Hurts to be in Love"

I first heard this song over KRLA on August 23, 1964. This was the night of the Beatles' concert at the Hollywood Bowl. KRLA was alternating Beatles songs with debuts, or "pick to hits," as KRLA called them. "It Hurts to Be In Love" was one of those tunes.

Petula Clark: "Downtown"

In late 1964 and early 1965, I hated Petula Clark's "Downtown" but loved the Righteous Brothers' "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling." By late January, "Feeling" had reached #1, but "Downtown" was at #2--at least on KRLA, at 1110 kilocycles. Throughout February, I was rooting for "Feeling" to stay at #1. Finally, "Downgtown" began to fade, and I was ecstatic.

In the first week of March, "My Girl" by the Tempttions finally knocked "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling" out of the number one spot.
