KYMN in Portland, Oregon wasn’t around very long as a Top 40 station. It took over from KGON in August, 1964, and broadcast Top 40 until September 18, 1967, when they switched to a “Beautiful Music” format. Currently it’s KXET that has a Russian-language Christian format. Here’s KYMN’s Top Ten for December 19, 1964, 58 years ago yesterday.
- Dave Clark Five, “Anyway You Want It”
- The Detergents, “Leader of the Laundromat”
- Dick and DeeDee, “Thou Shalt Not Steal”
- Bobby Vinton, “Mr. Lonely”
- The Impressions, “Amen”
- The Larks, “The Jerk”
- The Supremes, “Come See About Me”
- The Searchers, “Love Potion Number Nine”
- Sue Thompson, “Paper Tiger”
- The Beatles, “I Feel Fine”/”She’s A Woman”
And that’s Top Ten Tuesday for December 20, 2022.
