Vintage 1963 KISN Fabulous Fifty Hit Parades Portland Oregon 910 AM Good Guys The Swinging Gentlemen Pat Pattee, Ken Chase, Tiger Tom Murphy....Here are some 1963 Fabulous Fifty Hit Parades from the one and only KISN 910 on your AM radio dial in Portland, Oregon.A blast from the past full of oldie, moldy, goldies! Bring back the pre-Beatles memories with the songs from Elvis, Dion, Bobby Vee, The Tokens, Chubby Checker, Brenda Lee, Ray Charles, The Crystals, Patsy Cline, Del Shannon, The Four Seasons, Jerry Lee Lewis, Roy Orbison, Pat Boone, The Fleetwoods, Sam Cooke, Jackie Wilson, The Kingston Trio, Bobby Darin, The Shirellles, Ricky Nelson, Ray Stevens, Dee Sharpe, Clyde McPhatter, Little Eva, Freddy Cannon, Duane Eddy, Ike and Tina Turner, Toni Fisher, Neil Sedaka and many, many, more. In the 60's KISN was one of the best rock and roll stations in the Pacific Northwest and they played all this music all the time.  But one thing that made KISN really great was its superlative deejays who spun the platters and spewed their patter: The Real Don Steele, Tiger Tom Murphy, Pat Pattee, Roger Hart, Ken Chase, Paul Oscar Anderson, Addie Bobkins, Peter Huntington May, Dick Saint and so forth, and so on.... They were called the Swingin' Gentlemen or the KISN Good Guys, depending on the venue, and it is really nice to have their pictures frozen in time along with the music of that time. For a lot of these deejays KISN was the final stepping stone to the lucrative Los Angeles, Chicago, or San Francisco markets where they helped usher in the Summer of Love and transformed how rock and roll was not only played on the radio but how it was perceived in the bigger pictures of culture and history. I am offering each of the following KISN Hit Parades individually.  You may buy one, or as many as you like. This particular batch of KISN Fabulous Fifty Hit Parades covers January, February, March, and April all from 1963.

Look them over and if you grew up during this era, you will be flooded with memories.  And, I am willing to bet that you will find some songs on these lists that you never heard of (or don't remember?). Condition is mostly pretty good but there is some dog-earing, pin holes, and occasional markings here and there on some. See the Photos. These are all from my personal collection and have been saved for you at a moment like this. I have three other batches of these Fab Fifty's covering 1962, 1964, and 1965 in my store.
