PEAK MUSIC 1967

 

This is a series that will attempt to Sport(ify) music by creating a 5 member All-Pro/All League/All Star team (Sort of like the NBA first team all-stars) for each year in Music starting with 1964. It will rely heavily on Top 20 Hits from the year but also take into account Concert Tours, Music awards, Music Videos (MTV Crowd-You Tube), TV, Films, Pop Culture etc….. 

 

1967

This is a year where there is a clear number one but 2 through 5 was difficult.

The Beatles had 4 top ten hits with three number ones but Strawberry Fields Forever was not one of the number 1 hits.

As their popularity spilled over into 1967, The Monkees had 4 top twenty hits with Daydream Believer hitting number 1.

They became Diana Ross and the Supremes and they had 2 number ones including (love is here and now you're gone) and 4 top twenty hits.

The Young Rascals or Rascals as they would be know a little later on would have 5 top twenty hits with Groovin hitting number one and a personal favorite (How can I be sure) hitting number four in September of 1967

The Doors (they overcome the Led Zepplin problem – which I will discuss in 1970), and hit number one with Light My Fire and have one other top 20 HIT
