American Bandstand 1968 -Beatles Criticism? - Top 10 - Everything That Touches You, The Association

Airdate: March 9, 1968

“Everything That Touches You” is The Association’s (with the Wrecking Crew) last top 10 hit. It is at its peak of #10 for the 2nd week in a row today. Their next song “Time For Livin’” will be their last song to chart in the top 40, peaking at #39 in June.

So many of the ’67 regulars are gone here in March of ’68. Still “Associating” on the dancefloor today: Don Sanuskar & Robin Morris (4:12), Mike Langham & Pat Dickinson (4:13), Roberta Simon (4:27), Theodosia Dayton (5:05), Sue Rose (5:10) and Al Allevia dancing with Roberta Simon on the far-left riser.

Sorry, I don’t have the 1910 Fruitgum Company segment in this episode.

In political news, next week (March 16) Robert Kennedy will announce his candidacy for president and on March 31 President Johnson will stun the nation by announcing “…I shall not seek, and I will not accept, the nomination of my party for another term as your president“, to a nationally televised audience.
