There was a book "Hit Men" by Fredric Dannen. I seem to recall an incident from that book involving Yvonne Eliman's Bee Gee Written Hit "If I can't Have You" going to number 1 after it had apparently peaked at 2. Looking at the charts, the move does not seem that suspicious. Does anyone recall the book or the story?

Andy Gibb was #1 for 7 weeks and held his bullet the entire time. Baker Street moved to 2 after Gibb had been number 1 a week and held it's bullet until its six week at number 2. Then both songs moved out of contention in the same week. Again, this does not looks suspicious to chart watchers.

What do these records have in common? The label: RSO
