A little break from technical talk. What was the #1 record when you were born? www.thisdayinmusic.com (click on "Birthday No. 1") For myself: Nancy Sinatra - These Boots Are Made For Walkin' (U.K.) Sgt. Barry Sadler -- Ballad of The Green Berets (U.S.A.)

It doesn't go back far enough.
Looking at the billboard charts I come up with FIVE MINUTES MORE Frank Sinatra (#1, Sept 1946)
I have the charts back to 1946 in text and 49 in XLS

You share the same birthdate (but not year) as a good frind of mine, he's a Building inspector here...he laments the events which affect that date...
Interesting that "Eye Of The Tiger" was #1 in the UK....
