Thanks for the Ping!
Even though I was BORN in 1960, my Mom ALWAYS had music on in the house, so I pretty much know all of the popular music of that time! :)
I had older sisters who had Top 40s on nonstop from the early 60s.
Unfortunately, I have a somewhat freakish memory and remember the crap with the good!
1961 hits included Lawrence Welk, Patsy Cline, and Dave Brubek. Fragmentation of markets was still ahead.
