WMCA in New York City has been a Christian broadcaster since 1989, but was a Top 40 station in the late 1950’s and 1960’s, staffed by DJ’s known as "The Good Guys." It was the first radio station in New York to broadcast a Beatles song. Here’s their Top Ten from this day in 1967. There are eleven songs here: Herman’s Hermits had a double-A side single with "There’s A Kind Of Hush" and "No Milk Today."
- Martha & The Vandellas, “Jimmy Mack”
- Tommy James & The Shndells, “I Think We’re Alone Now”
- Herman’s Hermits, “There’s A Kind Of Hush”/”No Milk Today”
- The Four Tops, “Bernadette”
- Petula Clark, “This Is My Song”
- The Mamas & The Papas, “Dedicated To The One I Love”
- The Rolling Stones, “Ruby Tuesday”
- The Young Rascals, “I’ve Been Lonely Too Long”
- The Turtles, “Hapy Together”
- The Beatles, “Penny Lane”
And that’s Top Ten Tuesday for March 15, 2022.

Good survey, good year. Growing up in New York City, I listened more to WABC in the 1960’s, but I did listen to WMCA from time to time. I’ve seen Herman’s Hermits in concert twice in recent years.

Which one, the one with or without Peter Noone?

I just loved this year you picked. Boy were Herman’s Hermits so young looking. I love that song from Petula Clark

I guess Petula Clark is going to be 90 this year. Funny that she was considered part of the British Invasion even though she wasn’t a rocker.
Peter Noone looked like he was twelve back then, didn’t he? A friend of mine gave me the single of “There’s A Kind Of Hush” and “No Milk Today” for my 11th birthday. That was the year Dad died…

Dad had died less than two months earlier, and I was about to turn 11 and was finally feeling like myself again. These songs hold a special place in my heart…
