#Former Sure Shot
##Former Long Shot
NOTE: On the original chart as printed in GO Magazine, Jealous Kind Of
Fella was mistakenly listed as both #11 and #20, while Suspicious Minds
was not listed at all; however, during the on-air countdown that week,
Jealous was played at #20 and Suspicious at #11. This was the first week
that WMCA included albums on its chart; during the on-air countdown that
week, it was announced that if the sales of Abbey Road were divided among
all the tracks on the album, each one would outsell that weeks best-selling
single.
