Previous week position in parenthesis.

The Cookies, entering the survey at #35 this week backed up Little Eva on her hits as well as doing other backup work.
Group has quite a history going back into the mid 1950's. Ethel "Earl-Jean" McCrea, with new members are the group
on Dimension. McCrea had a solo hit on her own "I'm Into Something Good", that went top ten in the Twin Cities in 1964.
Many know the Herman's Hermits cover better.
