Predicting quite a quiet chart for next Sunday, and indeed the following week. As commitments prevail, I shall be dropping this thread from this week...unless anyone wants to take it up. Most of the Radio Luxembourg vintage charts are on various sites, so not much point in covering them I don`t think. But thanks to Tom Kay for all his help over the last few months anyway.

Thanks Dave

 

Where is Lady Gaga/Beyonce - Telephone?
