Billboard Magazine felt that late in 1963 both Hot 100 (pop/rock) & R&B singles charts were too similar especially in 1963 alone when the likes of Andy Williams, Lesley Gore,Skeeter Davis, Rooftop Singers & Peter Paul & Mary scored Top 5 hits on the R&B chart thus the conclusion was drawn that both black & white consumers listened to the same music/artists.Though if the Billboard R&B chart was still in place in 1964 the Brit Invasion set (Beatles/Stones/DC5/Dusty Springfield)i feel would've have scored R&B chart hits as well as pop hits. In the absence of Billboard R&B charts from late 1963 to early 1965, Cashbox's R&B listings ruled the genre, a fact acknowledged by chart king Joel Whitburn with his inclusion of this data in his 2005-published R&B compendium. During this period, only three "reverse-oreo" records acheived top five chart positions: "Louie, Louie" The Kingsmen/Paul Revere and the Raiders (sales leader never specified) "Just Like Romeo and Juliet" The Reflections "Right Or Wrong" Ronnie Dove Interestingly, Cashbox discontinued R&B charts for several months in 1960 for basically the same reasons Billboard did in 1963.
