interesting... a transitional period, theres 3 artists in this chart who would soon all become big players in the glam scene. slade and sweet with their first hits, and t rex too.

 

theres also some classic soul, just before it went all 'sweet' and caberet. <_< ... elgins temptations, and smokey robinson. the corporate amalgamation that was the supremes and four tops however was AWFUL. :angry: what a p*** poor rendition of a great classic.

 

most of the plain pop though was imho rather week... the move, peter noone, dawn, middle of the road, etc...

 

jonathon king was in twice, as himself and st cecilia <_<
