"Blue Side Of Lonesome" #59 10/1/1966

The tenth country #1 for Gentleman Jim Reeves and his fifth posthumous #1. It knocked "Almost Persuaded" out of the top spot after that song's nine-week run. A lot of his obscure and unreleased material surfaced for years after Jim's death in 1964. This would be his next-to-last country chart-topper, however.
