Gotta be a major typo. Even though not the first of it's genre by a long shot, this song riveted, defined and marketed strutting New York City streetcorner Oldies music. To believe that a thousand songs somehow moved ahead of it in stature on an OLDIES chart is ridiculous. Someone misplaced a digit.

(I recall reading a book by a pop critic -- something-Marush? -- which listed the top 1001 songs .... Drake tympani roll .... of ALLLL time, and 'Nobody's Baby Now' by Reparata and the Delrons was #1001. Delicious, greasy, NYC oldie it was; drenched in exSpector-ations and even borderline Chicken Rock.
Or maybe it was number 101?).
