KFXM and K/men December 27, 1963

We've come to the end of 1963. The last issues (just for the year)
The K/men are ending the year with the pictures (the caricatures will be back eventually) WOW! #1 is now Out Of Limits-Marketts, I guess both stations finally got new copies of the records.
Highest debut on K/men As Usual-Brenda Lee #7
New this week The Shelter of His Arms-Sammy Davis, Jr.
Our Love Affair-Wink Martindale
You Don't Own Me-Leslie Gore



Big jumps for The Nitty Gritty-Shirley Ellis #33 to #8 and
Surfin' Bird-Trashmen from #38 to #16
Highest debut #33 The Twelve Gifts of Christmas-Allen Sherman
New this week
Big Mean Draggin' Machine-Lynn Bryson (Was this a misprint, or did one of the KFXM jocks have a record out?)
A Fool Never Learns-Andy Williams

    Hey yes both stations, and at the
    same time, conceded to the tile
    change of OUTER LIMITS to OUT OF
    LIMITS. Who knows why they stuck
    it out so long. Just picking on
    a moot point.

    HARLEM SHUFFLE has to be one of
    the best oldies of all time.
    Great beginning to end.
    BUT it wasn't really a national
    hit, per Billboard's TOP 100.
    Still great to hear it on oldies
    stations on west coast.

    The Stones did it in the
    70s but it didn't compare.
    No way.
