| Yep, DD correctly answered the musical question posed in yesterday's post. "Going Down for the Third Time" is the b-side of "Reflections" by Diana Ross & The Supremes. from AMG: Re The Supremes Sing Holland-Dozier-Holland (1967) "....(Regarding "Mother You, Smother You") is too formulaic...but the singing and lyrics places it well above what other girl groups were releasing at the time. Ditto for "Going Down for the Third Time." A Supremes' album track would be an A-side for most artists. The prolific writers did an excellent job on their namesake LP, which turned out to be the last of the great Supremes albums. |

What a great guy!!!! :D :D :D This was a monumental task that I did by hand--not with a computer. :-? :o :-? :o I'm proud of these charts and hope you enjoyed reading them. I tried my best to be absolutely as accurate as possible and spell everything correctly (Billboard didn't!!! :P ) If you see errors, please let me know. My eyes glazed over during the typing too many times to think I didn't make errors in typing. I've learned a whole lotta stuff and look forward to exploring 1976 next!!! |

| Update: The full text of the 11/9/74 Tom Moulton column has been added to the November 9, 1974 chart post. Thanks to shootyourshot for typing it out and e-mailing it to me. My copy was xeroxed so it cut it in half and didn't have the final paragraph. It concerns the releases of "Express," "I'll Be Holding On," "Tell Me What You Want," etc. It's on page #2. |

They upgraded my #35 to #15; my #23 to #5 (deservedly--but I couldn't argue with the numbers) And then Billboard has bundled 2 titles together and I kept them separate. Anyhoo, that's they way they ranked 'em. |
