This is part of my attempt to get to know more music from before 1987, which is when I got into the charts. :)

 

As is tradition, my reviews will be very uneven; Some may consist of "This is awful" or "I'm not surprised that I don't know this. It probably got zero airplay after it left the charts".

 

And some will be a paragraph or two.

 

Expect plenty of Madonna, Madness and erm, Shakin Steven's but absolutely no Gary Glitter! Yay!

 

There's over 800 of these so it's gonna take months.

 

:cry:

Excited for this! I’m massively into early 80s New Wave music so look forward to reading your thoughts.

Only the new wave stuff that made the top 5 will feature. :)

Yay, and good luck on staying the course! :)

Interested to see how many of these will be new to me. I suspect quite a few in the first half of the decade but we’ll see

Oh very interesting, just like you, I also started kinda following the charts in 87
