It’s in his newest Epic album. (Flip, "Thinking Of You Baby" is available only in England). I WANNA THANK YOU - Enchanters (WB) Strong candidate for big action in Dixie. LAH DEE DAH I LOVE YOU - Inez Foxx (Symbol) A natural! Burke Johnson-WAOK, likes it and so do I. LOVERS ALWAYS FORGIVE - Gladys Knight (Marx) Good follow-up to her recent hit. THERE’S NOTHING I CAN SAY - Rick Nelson (Decca-) Still a good pick. I STAND ACCUSED - Jerry Butler (Vee Jay) I keep telling you! (it’s not a hit in Atlanta, where it hasn’t been played. Same for many other spots.) SCRATCHY - Travis Wammack (ARA) Top five at WSGN-Birmingham. Ed Ripley-WMBR reports interest in this side in Jacksonville. Pat Hughes picks it. SOCIETY GIRL - Rag Dolls (Parkway) Well produced side. Maybe....but not big. IN TIMES LIKE THESE - Gene McDaniels (Liberty) This should get him back on the air. Then back on the charts. SOMEONE SOMEONE - Brian Poole (Monument) #4 for Johnny Long-WMNZ. #5 WSEM. #36 at WPGC. But generally not making the grade. BABY I NEED YOUR LOVING - Four Tops (Motown) #1 request this week at WAIR. Good Atlanta sales. Solid winner at WEKR. Also, WQAM, WAOK and WVLD. THEN YOU CAN TELL ME GOODBYE - Johnny Nash (Argo) His best ever! A QUIET PLACE - Garnet Mirrnns (UA) Now it’s top five in Charlotte. Keeps popping up, here and there. HUGO - Linda Hall (Columbia) Jack Kane-WLCY-Tampa gets credit for this one which broke second in Birmingham. Headed for big national action. SABAHOOLA - Lonnie Mack (Fraternity) On many playlists. Cincinnati sales. MAYBELLINE - Johnny Rivers (imperial) Widely chosen to follow "Memphis". 20-75 - Willie Mitchell (Hi) It's come and gone in many areas. #1 this week at WJHO. Action throughout Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia. Great instrumental with a proven record in the shops. THOU SHALT NOT STEAL - Jack Scott (Groove) The juke box people like it. Best you give it a listen. H e ’s been cold a long time and is overdue. ALWAYS SOMETHING THERE TO REMIND ME - Lou Johnson (EH) #29 at WMOC-Chattanooga. ALWAYS TOGETHER - A1 Martino (Capitol) Headed for the top twenty. OUT OF SIC-HT - James Brown (Smash) The biggest selling rough sound around, if you're not already with it.
