Can you name the artists who had UK number 1 singles in the 60s?

[tiger76]

So you don't like the 90's, let's see if you prefer the 60's I only managed 28/114, but it's not really my era, so one for the elder members of the forum methinks https://www.sporcle.com/games/bumfish/no1s1960s

[Bosscat]

NO again

[tim_noone]

On it....loads and I'm only 12...

[Rowls]

I think the Beatles did.

[Woodleyclaret]

Easy but quiz doesnt allow answer to be posted

[boatshed bill]

I got a few right, eg: Engelbert Humperdink for starters, that it wouldn't allow.
Got 52, mainly bands.

[LordBob]

Moody Blues, Helen Shapiro, Hermans Hermits, The Hollies plus all the usual suspects ......

[timshorts]

27. Having seen the answers I'm not embarrassed either. What a heap of tripe most of that lot is. No I also can't spell Englebert what'shisface or Lonnie donnigan - but the latter did some decent stuff and yet he only got to number 1 with that piece of ****?
No wonder they needed halucenagenics.
Hint: they turned out to be in alphabetical order.....

[timshorts]

Oh, and peters and Lee and sonny and Cher were different?

[Aclaret]

That explains a lot

I got 82 in the allotted time, typing on my mobile, which isn't easy. It's my era: I've checked the whole list and I know them all.

82 is impressive, that's a good target to set for everybody else VB, I'll probably post the 70's/80's tomorrow, if anybody wants to have a crack at those decades, times getting on now and bed awaits.

[Vino blanco]

I simply did it from the first question onwards. The answers are in alphabetical order, I got to "m" and ran out of time.

[THEWELLERNUT70]

67 for me

[huw.Y.WattfromWare]

64 but ran out of time. Knew loads more and it wouldn’t accept 3 on spelling.

[Clarets4me]

58/118 .... and I was 6 in December 1969. I didn't know Des O'Connor had a No.1, though and I couldn't spell Procol Harem or Engelbert either !!

[Guitargeorge]

Poor interface with spelling mistakes and reset when I was halfway through

[BenWickes]

48. I could picture all the bands/singers but couldn't drag them out of the memory banks.

I got 79 (and it would have been 80 had I been able to spell Humerdinck) - but there were some songs I knew and couldn't get the artists name.

Yes Humperdinck was one I couldn't spell. Dusty Springfield was frustrating me. I could picture her singing I only want to be with you and even with the Pet Shop Boys but that name was bugging me. I went through every singer but her. Even got Twiggy in my head at one point. Yet I could pull out Johnny Tillotson and Helen Shapiro. The mind's a funny thing.

[dermotdermot]

88. Honest.

[ClaretCliff]

73 for me, plus 6 misspellings, and not always on my part.

[Aclaret]

Yeah, just that, you know them but you don't know them.

[beeholeclaret]

89 on my ipad which wasnt easy as couldnt see what I was typing half of the time. My era is seventies really but I do love the sixties stuff.

[Goobs]

Born in 81 and managed 27 which I thought was acceptable
