It’s All Over Now topped the charts

July 14, 1964
The Rolling Stones score their first #1 hit in the UK with their cover of Bobby Womack’s It’s All Over Now.

New York disc jockey Murray the K gave The Stones a copy of the original recording of the song by The Valentinos and suggested they record it. Murray was important enough to have the ear of The Rolling Stones and even The Beatles: Even before the British Invasion, Murray had been at the top of the rock station ratings for years.
