List of Billboard Easy Listening number ones of 1966

 * Nominator(s): ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:52, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Here's another list of the number ones on the chart for songs that the parents of the rock and roll kids liked :-) In this year, the chart was dominated by "Ol' Blue Eyes", one of the most respected song stylists of the 20th century, yet the biggest-selling single of the year (of any genre) was by an actual serving soldier..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:52, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

 * Ref 9 – Add  and
 * Ref 12 – Inconsistent formatting with refs 3 and 5. Recommend changing publisher to work.

 * I do not think "at number one" is necessary in this part (before being replaced at number one by Al Martino's "Spanish Eyes") as it can be easily understood from the overall context of the sentence. That and it would help with some of the repetition of the "number one" phrasing around this part.
 * For the Staff Sgt. Barry Sadler, I think it would be best to spell out Sergeant instead of using the shortened version.

Wonderful work as always. I only have two very minor and nitpick-y comments, and once both are addressed, I will be more than happy to support this FLC. Aoba47 (talk) 20:55, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
