I know the Sixties charts aren't the most popular on here, so I tend
only to post them when someone involved has died, and on this basis I'm
packing a few 2020 RIPs into one here: Spencer Davis, Wayne Fontana,
Tommy DeVito of the Four Seasons and Phil May of the Pretty Things.
Meanwhile some of the other people in this chart remain alive and
working and of course Cliff and Shirley Bassey have released new
material in recent weeks.
