Well, The charts don't go back far enough for me, sheet music governed the popularity stakes pre-1950!! Nearest I can get after raiding Wikipedia is Vera Lynn from March 1948 (which still doesn't go back enough) with "You Can't Be True, Dear". Nearest from USA is Muddy Waters's "I Can't Be Satisfied" from the same year. Now we are going back a bit! ------------- Pete C 2000 Z3M Coupe, Cosmos Black Previous E28 528i Alpina, E28 M5 & M635 |
