Hi all,

I have found a website that has many full recordings of the 3 hour chart show on BBC Radio 1 from the 80s and 90s and they can be played back from the site.

It might be cool if we replayed a chart and discuss it as we're listening. 3 hours is a bit much to commit to so perhaps just the top 20.

I guess there would need to be more than just a few of us to make the discussion worth while.

Feel free to comment.

Colm

Mixcloud? *.* I'm listening to a 2010 chart on there as we speak laugh.gif

I'd be interested in this idea, moreso 90s!

Yep - Mixcloud. I'm listening to a 1992 one at the moment.

Songs fell so sharply back then.

edit - I kinda assumed it we would be doing some from the 90s but it might be interesting discussing a chart with lots of songs that some of us never heard of because they never get played any more

I've been listening to a lot of the retro charts on there during lockdown.. More so the 2000's but it's really interesting hearing how fast paced the charts were then. I just listened to 91 chart on Monday where Bryan Adams historic reign ended *.*

I listened to the weekly chart between 1987 and 1993. After that I was always travelling to college on Sunday evenings so my listening was disrupted.

I like re-discovering songs I had forgotten about.

I'd be up for doing joint Retro chart shows listenthroughs on let's say a Sunday afternoon/evening if there is enough interest and a discussion thread, 90s and 00s moreso than 80s for me though.

Yeh same here I'm happy with the majority it wouldn't mind the 80s too, so many songs in those charts you know and don't release it and you hear samples from modern dance songs all the time.

Ok, let's go for Sunday 9th August at 17:00 GMT

Probably going to go for one from the early 90s.

I'm sure I'll have listened to them all at the time but I've never revisited any of them.

I'm also going to find a retro chart thread in the main forum and post in there about what we're doing.
