(Before the middle of 1960, WABC's chart information was obtained from Cash Box magazine.) There would be only one other tie on WABC's chart, at a lower position, some 17 years later. Early playlists indicate the Beatles' "Roll Over Beethoven" on the British label, Parlophone, later amended to the Capitol of Canada label. The songs at positions 29 and 30 were on the printed survey but were not played on the air this week. All of the album cuts listed on this survey are from the LP, "Meet the Beatles!"
