walk to lop

T hese Boots Are Made For Walkin ' " sings Nancy Sinatra - and this week

they walked her right to the top of the Pop 50.

This is Nancy's first big hit - In both Britain ,ind America and she now has to decide whether to devote more time to her sin1in1 or to take up several new film offers.

It soems doubtful that Nancy will be able to make Britain in the near future.

"There are a couple of films ca.itin1 soon and until I know what is happening there, my hands .,. tied, 11 she says.

Nancy's first number one comH onty four weeks after Sinatra Week celebrated her father 's 25 yeus in showbusiness.

The WHO withdraw new disc

THE Who have withdrawn their latest single, "Circles" from the February release sheets.

They have decided that "Circles", • Pete Townshend composition has "just not worked out."

It was to have been released on February 18. The new track, which will be released as soon as is

possible, is yet another Townshend composition titled. "Substitute".

The group's co-manager, Kit Lambert told the MM this week : " Pete suddenly pulled this number out of the bag. He only completed it last week. It is a great track better than 'My Ceneration'.11

The Who's management stable, New Action Ltd. in asst>ciation with Robert Stigwood Promotions, plan to put on another pilot tour of the Who Show.

EXPORT They completed a three­

day test run last weekend, and now, with an altered billing, they want to try another pilot in different areas of England, for four days,

Plans for the Who to spend the summer in Ame­rica are almost complete, and a British package tour on the Who Show basis, is to be "exported" to Belgium and France when they get back.

~­,, SO Crisplan St. Peters Is "one or the few solo male singers to

emerge In recent years" (MM February 5). What rot ! Look at all the male singers that hav e been hammering at the chart, easily competing with the groups and girls.

What about Tom Jones, Len Barry, Ken Dodd, Bob Dylan, Tony B nnell, P. J . Proby, Roger Miller, Chris Andrews, Barry McGuire and Donovan? And many more!

It's nice to see Crispian of course, but he's got plenty or company.­LYNN STEVENS, Welwyn Garden City, Herts.

Frank and revealing CONGR'A TULATIONS to th St. Louis Union for ntGring the top twenty, all stemming from tho Melody Maker Group cont st. POP Think In Is an excellent feature. Both revealing and frank It tell, us • gr nl

and appredatlng their music.-HEATHER ROBERTSON, Brtdaend, Glamor1M1 S. Wal eLP WINNER
