BBC Radio 2 commemorates the 50th anniversary of The Beatles' Abbey Road album. Starting at 9.30am on Thursday 26th September to midnight on Sunday 30th September. That’s 44 programmes over 4 days.

 

I’m looking forward to hearing the Official UK Top 60 most streamed and downloaded Beatles songs on Saturday 28th September at 5pm to 7pm and on Sunday 29th September again at 5pm to 7pm.

 

So 60 tracks in 4 hours. Will they just add total digital downloads from November 2010 to streaming equivalent sales from December 2015? Or will there be 2 separate lists?

 

I assume original physical sales will be ignored. Hope the OCC web site publishes the Top 60 list with the sales figures.

 

See Radio 2 Beatles

Ooft talk about overkill :drama: one or two shows is enough surely? :lol:

But its The Beatles - you must have heard of them. ;)

I haven't listened to Radio 2 in about two years but I've got it on in the background at work for this *.* me, my colleague next to me, my dad and grandad simultaneously listening! :lol: Looking forward to whatever content I can catch over the next four days, the interview with Paul and chart countdowns look good in particular.

 

Edit: oh it's a separate DAB radio thing, was wondering why I could hear Leona Lewis :lol: to BBC sounds I go!

Ken Bruce is doing a simulcast but it's not all Beatles.

Abbey Road for #1 next week on album chart? :P
