Back in the late 1960s, WLS tabulated a DAILY Top 5 countdown, which was tabulated on an "IBM 360 Computer", or something like that, which made it sound really official. Did anyone make tapes of these countdowns? I seem to remember one night that "Watch The Flowers Grow", a light psychedelia flavored tune from late 1967 by The Four Seasons, which only reached #30 Hot 100 but hit #9 on the WLS weekly survey, which put it in the realm of possibility that it happened the way I remembered it, in the Daily Top 5. It seems that I may have even recorded the countdown on a 3 1/4" reel to reel recorder at 3 3/4 IPS. I don't know how I would find that particular tape even if the tape and audio survived. Does anyone else remember those Top 5 Daily Countdowns? I'd love to find some of these. It seems like only a few WCFL minispins and Top 10 countdowns have survived all these years.
