We have the number one hits on this date, June 29th, 1963, 73 and 83.
Each week we feature a year, last week it was 62, 72 and 82 on that date. 1962 today was “Sukiyaki” by Kyu Sakamoto. 73 was George Harrison with “Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth)” and 83 was “Flashdance… What a Feeling” by Irene Cara.
This week’s “La La Song” is a na na song.
Check out Paul Simon’s “You Can Call Me Al” from 1986. Funny, someone needs to rewrite a version. When you see the word Al on the radio dial, it looks like A-I “I can call you lies And lies , when you call me, you can call me Al…” Na na na na

We have some musician birthdays on June 29th to celebrate.
Little Eva was born in 1943 on the date. She released “The Loco-Motion” in 1962. She passed in 2003. We’ve used the song in our “Original and Cover” feature, also playing Kylie Minogue’s version from 1988. Also celebrating this Monday is frontman from Men at Work, Colin Hay. Ron says “Who Can It Be” was played in overkill. Hay wrote the song. So we will play the Men at Work song “Overkill” instead. Hay wrote that one as well. And songwriter Doc Pomus would have celebrated this past Saturday. He’s known for writing songs for Elvis, Ray Charles, The Drifters and just so many.
