Talk:1967 in music

The Stones on the Ed Sullivan show
Ed did ask Mick to change the words to Let's Spend Some Time Together, but he didn't. It upset Ed terribly and he stated at that time he wouldn't have the Stones on the show again. Sorry--been too long and can't remember the source for this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Historiccolumbus (talk • contribs) 16:45, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

albums released - alphabetical order
Dear 60s and 70s music fans out there in wikiland (or is that wikispace?)

For want of an easier way of doing things, and following a question raised on another talk page, I am in the process of putting the albums released sections of the 60s and 70s in music pages into alphabetical order.

Whilst I realise this may not be the best or most popular way of listing stuff, I reached the conclusion that other than going directly to an artist's article page, it was probably the most efficient/effective way to find that album that we want to check up on and compare it to its contemporaries. By way of example, if we were to put the following album in artist name order:


 * Diana Ross Presents the Jackson 5 - Jackson 5

we would [probably] have to include it twice on the same list: once under each of the named artists, whereas if we list it alphabetically there's no possible confusion(?).

I'd appreciate some feedback on this, and in the hope that y'all agree with me (as you can imagine this is taking up quite a bit of my wikitime), I'm posting this note on all the relevant discussion pages. Please bear in mind I am only suggesting this for the albums released sections and NOT for any other kind of list. Thanx. 83.180.133.119 23:03, 13 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Would you be overriding the chronological listing you have now? Please clarify before I comment further. Tillywilly17 (talk) 23:04, 13 September 2023 (UTC)

Top hits
In order to be fair to the description of "top hits", I removed those hits that didn't make the top ten on Billboard. I know this way of doing it leaves out a number of regional hits, but anyone who wishes to can either write up a description of the merits or accomplishments of the single in the "other singles" section or make a wikilink that does the same. I think I remember one of these singles only got up to #14, and if you include every top ten hit you still have well over a hundred "top hits".

As for the B-sides, likewise, these rarely become top hits, and if they do, they may not become a top hit during the same period as the A-side did, and those that perform that rare feat are very likely to be wikilinked, where that information can be presented, and if not, they probably ought to be! 216.165.199.50 21:08, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Love Da Capo
Love Da Capo is missing from the list; recorded Sep/Oct 1966 (Alone Again Or, Barney Hopkins, Mojo Heroes, Mojo Books 2001; released Jan 1967 according to Wiki. My copy just says 1967. A very great omission as the first side is outstanding. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.20.169.241 (talk) 16:39, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
