BILLBOARD TOP RHYTHM & BLUES SINGLES September 1965

_______________

Many of the above titled Billboard R&B singles were the most popular radio plays heard on two Detroit soul stations 1400 WJLB and 1440 WCHB on the AM dial, September 1965. 

As tabulated by Billboard, the featured R&B Top 40 record singles were the nation’s most popular and best-selling soul records, for the week-ending September 18, 1965, 57 years ago.

MCRFB Note: By September of 1965 the Motown stable was churning out hits after hits after hits. It bears noting that 10 Motown records comprised this particular Billboard R&B chart alone. Add as well the #9 record, by Edwin Starr (Ric-Tic) and that will total 11 overall Detroit records having been tabulated for the chart — over one quarter listed overall!
