US Top 40 Singles for the Week Ending 1st February, 1964
And for my final Beatles note, this week was the final phase of the start of Beatlemania as “I Want To Hold Your Hand” hits #1, becoming the first of many #1’s from this point forward – until 1970. And “Please Please Me” enters the charts this week at #68 and “She Loves you” jumps a monster 48 spots to land at #21
