Andy Gibb - I Just Want To Be Your Everything (1977)

Image
July 30, 1977 - 44 Years Ago Today: Andy Gibb began a non-consecutive 4-week run at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart with his single, "I Just Want To Be Your Everything." The Barry Gibb-penned single was so popular that following three consecutive weeks at No. 1 and falling to the runner-up position, the single returned to No. 1 after being out of the top spot due to The Emotions' non-consecutive 5-week run at the top of the Hot 100 with their smash single, "Best Of My Love." This was Andy Gibb's debut single release and his first of 9 consecutive Top 40's which include 3 consecutive No. 1's and 6 consecutive Top Tens. Gibb's recording career burned out by the age of 23 - as fast as it came to him at the age of 19. Substance abuse issues caused his career to collapse.

Diana Ross - Ain't No Mountain High Enough (1970)

Image
August 8, 1970 - 51 Years Ago Today: Diana Ross had the Hot Shot Debut at No. 46 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart with her single, "Ain't No Mountain High Enough." This dramatic power ballad version of the Top 20 1967 hit by Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell was an instant smash at radio and retail and was Ross's 2nd solo chart entry and first solo No. 1 when it began a 3-week run at the top of the Hot 100 on September 19, 1970. The Nick Ashford/Valerie Simpson-penned song also enjoyed a single week atop the Billboard R&B Chart and peaked at No. 6 on the Billboard AC Chart.

The original album version had a running time of over six minutes. After radio DJ's began playing the long version of the song and creating their own edits, Ashford & Simpson were able to convince Gordy to release an edited ver...
