Music the Week the Color TV Era Began by Alex Cosper (12/26/12) Color television had been around since 1953 but was used sparingly until it was found to be competitive in the early sixties. Beginning in the Fall season of 1965, half of all network shows were made in color. By the end of the decade color would be the standard for each of the networks. The shift from black and white to color television was a dramatic time marker that defined modern television. The following songs were listed on national charts the week ending September 18, 1965 TOP HITS The Beatles - Help! Barry McGuire - Eve of Destruction We Five - You Were On My Mind Dave Clark Five - Catch Us If You Can Ramsey Lewis Trio - The In Crowd RECENT HITS Bob Dylan - Like A Rolling Stone Sonny & Cher - I Got You Babe Righteous Brothers - Unchained Melody James Brown - Papa's Got A Brand New Bag Beach Boys - California Girls Mel Carter - Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me Four Tops - It's The Same Old Song Miracles - Tracks of My Tears Supremes - Nothing But Heartaches Billy Joe Royal - Down In The Boondocks Wilson Pickett - In The Midnight Hour Barbara Lewis - Baby I'm Yours Cher - All I Really Want To Do RISING HITS McCoys - Hang On Sloopy Turtles - It Ain't Me Babe Yardbirds - Heart Full of Soul Sonny - Laugh At Me Fortunes - You've Got Your Troubles Animals - We Gotta Get Out of This Place Dean Martin - Houston Sonny & Cher - Baby Don't Go Edwin Starr - Agent OO-Soul Roy Head - Treat Her Right Marianne Faithful - Summer Nights Lovin' Spoonful - Do You Believe In Magic Castaways - Liar, Liar Elvis Presley - I'm Yours Ronnie Dove - I'll Make All Your Dreams Come True Kinks - Who'll Be The Next In Line Roy Orbison - Ride Away Martha & The Vandellas - You've Been In Love Too Long Tom Jones - With These Hands NEW MUSIC Royalettes - It's Gonna Take A Miracle Sonny & Cher - Just You Jay & The Americans - Some Enchanted Evening Gentry's - Keep On Dancing Ian Whitcomb - N-N-Nervous Donovan - Colours Herman's Hermits - Just A Little Bit Better Leslie Gore - My Town, My Guy and Me Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass - The 3rd Man Theme Otis Redding - Respect Joan Baez - There But For Fortune Spokesmen - Dawn of Correction Sunrays - I Live For The Sun Dickie Lee - The Girl From Peyton Place Paul Revere & The Raiders - Steppin' Out Strangeloves - Cara-Lin Bobby Vinton - What Color (Is A Man) Vogues - You're The One Toys - A Lover's Concerto OTHER RECORDS Freddy Cannon - Action Temptations - Since I Lost My Baby Barbara Mason - Sad, Sad Girl Jive Five - I'm A Happy Man Junior Walker & The All Stars - Shake and Finger Pop Charlie Rich - Mohair Sam Chuck Jackson - If I Didn't Love You Kingsmen - Annie Fanny Jody Miller - Home of the Brave Little Caesar & Consults - My Girl Sloopy Drifters - I'll Take You Where The Music's Playing Johnny Tillotson - Heartaches By The Number Vic Dana - Moonlight and Roses Sam Cooke - Sugar Dumpling Chad & Jeremy - I Don't Wanna Lose You Baby Roger Miller - Kansas City Star Contours - First I Look At The Purse Andy Williams - Ain't It True Marvelettes - Danger Heartbreak Danger Ahead Stevie Wonder - High Heel Sneakers Impressions - I Need You Lenny Welch - Two Different Worlds Joe Tex - I Want To (Do Everything For You) Baby Washington - Only Those In Love Gerry & The Pacemakers - Give All Your Love To Me Bobby Goldsboro - If You Wait For Love Bonnie & The Treasures - Home of the Brave Connie Francis - Roundabout Jim Reeves - Is It Really Over?
