KFXM June 27, 1969

My memory is fuzzy on this one. I didn't have an official survey from KFXM, so I must have listened to the countdown show. The Future Hits must be based on last weeks and next weeks survey.
The Jones Boys are gone. We have Doug Collins, Jonny Bruce, Don McCoy, Danny Dare, Bob B. Blue, Gary Evans, Dave Mc Kay and Marvin Bradley (some were former Jones Boys)
Ballad Of John & Yoko-Beatles #1

KFXM and K/men June 26, 1964

#1 Based on the next week's survey, it lists Sie Liebt Dich, Cry For A Shadow and Beatle Jazz as #1 and #1 for the prior week (this week), and they disappear the following week. Easy come, easy go. Does anyone have a survey for this week, that can tell me how #1 is listed? The Beatles #1 again.

June 5-7, 1964: The Rolling Stones perform their first concerts in the United States at auditoriums in San Bernardino, California and San Antonio, Texas.
Keith Richards: The first American gig...actually (our first ever American) gig was in San Bernardino. It was a straight gas, man. They all knew the songs and they were all bopping. It was like being back home. Ah, love these Americans and Route 66 mentioned San Bernardino, so everybody was into it...

KFXM and K/men June 5, 1964

Beatle Bunch #1 Showing adding Cry for A Shadow, so does this mean that that song jumped to #1 ? I don't have the back of the next three weeks (which shows Beatle Bunch as number 1) Personally I would have liked a #1 song listed, so I guess Cry For A Shadow debuted at #1
