I have a website that over the last few years I build up the charts from all of the 1970s- long way to go yet. But I also managed to find some of the charts that give the best selling singles of the year.
Here are a few shocks for 1970. Singalong!
Top Hits of 1970
1 Elvis Presley The Wonder Of You
2 Christie Yellow River
3 Mungo Jerry In The Summertime
4 Freda Payne Band Of Gold
5 Shirley Bassey Something
6 Lee Marvin Wanderin’ Star
7 Norman Greenbaum Spirit In The Sky
8 Simon & Garfunkel Bridge Over Troubled Water
9 England World Cup Squad Back Home
10 Free All Right Now

Back home has a major nostalgia rating for me. When I hear that Many days of short trousers and scuffed knees comes to mind.

Lee Marvin and Wanderin Star was the one I remember most from that time which is strange as it was a bit of a dirge is that the right word? lol
.From Paint your Wagon?

Back Home reminds me of the time of my very first overnight scouting expedition in Wales. It was so cold and I was so hungry I quit the next week.

I am surprised that Spirit In The Sky was that old- did I hear he became a milkman?
