“Yellow River” #23 11/28/1970

Perhaps the only thing rarer than being a one-hit wonder...is being a one-hit wonder with a single that lingered until this point for 20 weeks (plus three weeks Bubbling Under) and topped out @ #23. That happened to Jeff Christie, who used his surname for a group name. This former UK #1 was Jeff singing over a backing track by the Tremeloes instead of his own band. The chart positions by week starting 6/27/70: 105-105-111-98-96-87-80-80-64-64-55-65-59-53-51-50-42-40-37-28-26-25-23.
