Fewer than 10 of the future hits ever were.

Here is the NY top 10 from 12/1/65"

1 1 TASTE OF HONEY - Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass
2 2 I HEAR A SYMPHONY - The Supremes
3 5 I GOT YOU (I Feel Good) - James Brown & The Famous Flames
4 12 TURN! TURN! TURN! (To Everything There Is A Season) - The Byrds
5 3 RESCUE ME - Fontella Bass
6 11 DON’T THINK TWICE - The Wonder Who? (Four Seasons)
7 8 YOU’VE GOT TO HIDE YOUR LOVE AWAY - The Silkie
8 4 1-2-3 - Len Barry
9 7 A LOVER’S CONCERTO - The Toys
10 6 LET’S HANG ON! - The 4 Seasons

Over and Over by the Dave Clark Five jumped from 20 to 11, and Ebb Tide by the Righteous Brothers from 46 to 22.

Love that "Future 49" chart--although, I must say, after reading the list, very few actually went on the become part if the future chart .

Several others should have been hits, though.
