Found some from the early and mid 90's on this week's charts back in the day...
* Me'Shell Ndegeocello spent a "Wild Night" with John Mellencamp on AT40 but didn't have any other AT40 or CT40 hits.
* Adam Clayton & Larry Mullen from U2 shared credit on "Theme From Mission Impossible". That was their only singles chart credit outside of U2.
* CeCe Winans' only AT40 hit was with Whitney Houston on "Count On Me".

* "Philadelphia Freedom" was credited to The Elton John Band. It's the only time his band was included by name as the artist. Was "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds" from 1974-1975 credited to as "The Elton John Band" as well? |

Allure's only top 40 CT40 hit was their cover of "All Cried Out". It was a collaboration with 112, who had other hits.
This also applies to their Hot 100 career as they had another top 40 hit there, but it was a collaboration with Nas, who also had other hits.

Yeah  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elton_John_BandIn February 1975, the non-album single "Philadelphia Freedom" was credited to The Elton John Band, along with the single's B-side "I Saw Her Standing There" (recorded live with John Lennon at Madison Square Garden) and the band's 1974 cover of "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" (which also featured Lennon on backing vocals and guitar). |

^ Fred Bronson’s “The Billboard Book of #1 Hits” and Joel Whitburn’s “The Billboard Book of Top 40 Hits” credit The Elton John Band to “Philadelphia Freedom” only. My original list was based on UMD Music’s website. I’m not trying to start an argument here but could Fred and Joel be wrong?

My original list was based on UMD Music’s website. I’m not trying to start an argument here but could Fred and Joel be wrong? There are occasional mistakes in the Whitburn books, so it wouldn't surprise me. For example: * The Smashing Pumpkins' "Today" is listed as peaking at #69 on the Hot 100 Airplay chart, and charting for three weeks. On the Billboard website, it shows as peaking at #56 and charting for 21 weeks. I'm assuming the song initially charted for three weeks, dropped off, and re-charted for another 18 weeks, and the Whitburn staff forgot to add the second chart run. * In the entry for "Dear Mr. Jesus" by PowerSource, it mentions the song was popularized due to the death of 6-year-old Sharon Steinberg, when the girl's first name was actually Lisa. The confusion comes from the name of the girl who sang on the song, Sharon Batts. Maybe I should submit these to Paul Haney on here. |

This also applies to their Hot 100 career as they had another top 40 hit there, but it was a collaboration with Nas, who also had other hits. To keep the conversation about "All Cried Out" going, the original could count, kind of like Dottie West though I don't think Casey ever gave official credit to all of the artists on the original (or did any DJ I remember for that matter until the last decade or so). The artists listed on the 7 inch single of "Cried" are Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam with Full Force featuring Paul Anthony and Bow Legged Lou. Maybe it was just too much to say, maybe there were other reasons but Anthony and Lou are credited on the single as artists. Whether you include it or not, kinda neat that both versions had artists that would never chart officially again. |

My copy of the 7 inch vinyl single ''Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds'' with the MCA black rainbow image for the label only had Elton John, not The Elton John Band. Did they print it BOTH ways? I purchased mine in December 1974.
I remember being fascinated as a kid that some friends had the Captain & Tennille 1975 album with THE CAPTAIN & TENNILLE printed on the top front, while mine only had CAPTAIN & TENNILLE. The things by which I get sidetracked.

"Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" was credited only to Elton John on the label. Every US pressing showed it that way, despite the band credit on the picture sleeve. www.45cat.com/record/mca40344"Philadelphia Freedom" was the only single officially credited to The Elton John Band. www.45cat.com/record/mca40364(Should have posted this three days ago...) |
