Posted April 10, 201015 yr Putting this here as its in the same place as the weekly chart thread. Mods feel free to move to international charts forum if you feel it would be better there! In the early 1990s RTE radio changed the format of it's weekly chart show. Instead of a 2 hour countdown of the Top 30 singles they had a 2 part programme with part 1 looking at the Top 20 albums and the singles chart reduced to the second hour. This thread will collect together all the chart info I can find from this decade. From memory the first of these new look shows was in September 1990 and the first charts I can find are from a few weeks later. After the one chart from October they seem to be pretty much all there from the last week in November onwards though there are 2 noticeable gaps in my collection. 1. mid Sept 91 to the end of November 91 It's entirely possible that these have been filed elsewhere and I may well be able to track them down at a later stage. 2. 26/01/92, 02/02/92, 09/02/92 and 16/02/92 During this period there was a strike at RTE and the chart show wasn't broadcast. I do have a partial chart for 16/02/92 based on the last week info on the chart from 23/02/92. I hope to post one or two charts each night. These will be in date order as far as possible. The charts are Top 20s up to November 1996 when I was able to get the Top 30 from Aertel, the Irish teletext service. As the charts from January 2000 onwards are already available online I will stop at the end of 1999. PLEASE DO NOT ASK FOR CHART RUNS FOR SPECIFIC ARTISTS / ALBUMS OR FOR INFO OUTSIDE THE TOP 20. EVERYTHING I HAVE WILL BE POSTED HERE. REMEMBER! IF IT'S NOT HERE I DON'T HAVE IT!
