AUSTRALIA
RCA Singles 1
The push-out centers found on the first 2 singles
are much more uncommon.
Despite the fact that many of the picture sleeves reversed the A-B sides,
all singles charted the normal A-sides.
However some of the singles charted
as double A-sides and are noted below.
Chart positions are from the Go Set Magazine Top 40 & the
Australian Chart Book 1940-1969 by David Kent.
