“If You Don't Want My Love” #49 6/8/1968

Robert John Pedrick Jr. (known professionally as Robert John) was only 12 when he had his first chart record in 1958, but that only reached #79. It took another 10 years until this became his next one, then another three-plus years went by until his remake of “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” got into the Top 5. Another seven years passed before Robert had his only #1 with “Sad Eyes.”
