WABC's All American Survey for Week of 4 August 1964

[CO Liberal]

Every once in a while, I post a survey from my favorite non-political web site, www.musicradio77.com. This survey shows what was popular in the New York area 40 years ago today. - Wayne

PS - the numbers after each song indicate where they place on the previous week's survey.
