590 MIGHTY MEMORY #239

WARM AND THE SONGS OF JUNE

The summer after the assassination of President Kennedy was marked by an attempt by many WARMlanders to get on with their life. While the memory of the late President remained, the music really helped. Patty and the Emblems, a one hit wonder came in at number 36 with "Mixed Up Shook Up Girl" while Chubby Checker had that summer time favorite "Lazy Elsie Molly". 
There was a lot of English music influence on this chart but Bobby Daren was at number 24 while the Ray Charles Singers were at number 10!
