Unfortunately, it did but on the hot 100 pop singles charts. If it didn't hit #1 on the easy listening charts then it's news to me.

This is a list of songs that hit #1 in 1976 on the Easy Listening Chart,
not the Hot 100(also known as the Pop Chart). Unfortunately, I have
no information on how the song did on the Easy Listening Chart.

"Afternoon Delight" is my favorite song for the Summer Of 1976
