“Battle Hymn Of The Republic” #33 12/7/1968

1968 was such a turbulent year, and the record charts reflected that. Recordings of Martin Luther King’s “I Have A Dream” speech from 1963 and José Feliciano’s controversial World Series National Anthem performance charted. So did Andy Williams, singing mostly a cappella (with a choir) “Battle Hymn Of The Republic” which he did at his good friend Bobby Kennedy’s funeral.
