Not all of Berry's UK singles were released in the same year as the initial US release, and not all of his UK singles featured the same A-side and B-side configurations as in the US.
Billboard did not publish a separate R&B singles chart in 1964. For this year only, R&B chart positions are from Cash Box magazine.[14]
