Top10-Series-Ep.2 1960

Episode Two of the Top Ten series brings us to 1960 and we find Johnny O’Keefe and Col Joye still dominating with three Top Ten hits each. The other four are once-only (for 1960) Top Ten appearances for Noeleen Batley, Lonnie Lee, Johnny Ashcroft and Rolf Harris. 1960 also brings three Australian artist No 1s whereas in 1959 there was only one. The cut-off point for making the Top Ten was 12 in 1960 whereas it was 14 in 1959. Australian Rock/Pop Music was still in its infancy but beginning to grow.
