The Number 1 single was:
Roy Orbison - "Only The Lonely (Know How I Feel)"
The Number 1 album was:
Original Soundtrack - "South Pacific"
The also born list is seriously unimpressive!
1921 - Georges Brassens ( One of French pop's most poetic songwriters )
1968 - Orville Richard Burrell ( better known as Shaggy )
1985 - Zac(hary Walker) Hanson ( drummer and youngest of the three Hanson brothers )
...though I believe it's also the same day as Lesley West (Mountain) and Arsene Wenger.
