Oldest Chart-Topper
Louis Armstrong who was 66 years and 10 months when he peaked with "What A Wonderful World"/"Cabaret" in Feb 1968.
Oldest woman is Cher who was 52 years and 7 months when she hit the number 1 spot with "Believe" (1999).
All of the US artists from the '50s and '60s in this quiz never had any hits on the UK chart. Can you guess the artist or the song. (US:Joel Whitburn Billboard book of Top Pop Singles 1955-2002. UK:The Guinness book of British Hit Singles & Albums).
