Town Without Pity-Gene Pitney

Look back at the 1961 KFXM survey posted on October 27 (week ending October 20, 1961) and you will notice a new song at #48 Town Without Pity-Gene Pitney.  Well I've looked and that is the only time it appears on a KFXM survey.  It doesn't get listed again (at least I couldn't find it). It hit #13 nationally.  It was played in the later 60's, but barely charted on KFXM.  Anyone out there know the story about the Surveys Without Pitney?

KFXM November 5, 1965

First, yesterday I listed a bunch of  new songs on K/MEN.  All of them received a huge amount of airplay except one. I don't remember Fever-McCoys being played.  Although I've heard it as an oldie on a lot of stations. Anyone agree? The others on the list were played for years.

Only one of these new songs didn't seem to get excessive airplay over the years in the Inland Empire (in my opinion) on K/MEN and KFXM.  The rest got heard a lot.  Any guesses?  I let you know tomorrow.
