"Downtown" by Petula Clark was enjoying its second week at the top of the charts when I came into this world on the snowy evening of February 12, 1965.

Her dominance would be short-lived, however, as The Beatles' "Eight Days a Week" took the top spot the following week.

Cab Calloway was still around in the video era. A lot of the greats of the jazz era were around in my memory. My parents used to like to watch Louis Armstrong on TV in the '50s, but when I started to listen to his stuff from the '20s and '30s it was a whole different story.

Cab Calloway was an absolute genius. But he did kinda fall off the top of the charts by the 1950's. He kept going though strong and steady and kudos to the "Blues Brothers" for making him a centerpiece. He was always an elegant act.

And on the day my dad was born, "The Glow-Worm" by the Victor Orchestra was #1. To put it in better context, the 1400 series BUs were spanking new, the BRT Standards were a gleam in Bill Menden's eye, and the Malbone Street wreck was more than a decade in the future.

ABC - Jackson 5 (1970)

TSOP (The Sound of Philadelphia) - MFSB featuring the Three Degrees (1974 - actually bought it on my birthday!)

Night Fever - Bee Gees (have it on the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack)

I love rock and roll - Joan Jett & the Blackhearts (1982 - on the album)

We are the world - USA for Africa (1985) (had the album at one point, don't know where it is, or if I still have it)

Since it's thirteen years later, the song was "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me" by The Supremes/The Temptations.

The #1 album was the Beatles' White Album.
