WMBM in Miami is now a Gospel station, but from the ’60’s to the ’80’s they broadcast an R&B format. Here’s their Top 10 from April 29, 1967.
- Little Beaver, “I Feel My Love”
- Booker T. & The M.G.s, “Hip Hug-Her”
- Percy Sledge, “Out Of Left Field”
- Bobby Bland, “You’re All I Need”
- Mighty Sam, “Talk To Me”
- Timmy Norman, “I’m Coming Home”
- Fantastic Four, “Whole World Is A Stage”
- L. H. and Memphis Sound, “Double Up”
- William Bell, “Everybody Loves A Winner”
- Aretha Franklin, “Respect”
And that’s Top Ten Tuesday for April 26, 2022.
I guess R&B wasn’t my thing.

I started to boogie at my desk. Live that 2nd song and, of course, Aretha

Maybe the key is to throw in an R&B station, or a C&W station, every once in a while. A lot of these were songs I hadn’t heard because they hadn’t crossed over to the Pop stations.

Excellent blasts from the past!

Glad you liked them! I chose an R&B station this time, and it seems to have gone over well. I wasn’t familiar with these songs and only with a couple of artists (Percy Sledge, Bobby Bland, Aretha).
