AS FOR THE MUSIC -

Would you believe Bobby Sherman has the top single?
At least Creedence Clearwater Revival brings us back to earth with "Cosmo's Factory" for top album, edging out "Woodstock".

ALSO

A song about a rubber duckie makes waves.
Chicago can't get their numbers straight.

B.J. Thomas is a believer.

Remember Robin McNamara? Flaming Embers? The Five Stairsteps?
They all have songs in the Top 40.
