19 20 GOLD - THREE DEGREES

20 19 DIANA - DIANA ROSS

 

A bit short of VA Compilations in 1980..though THE LOVE ALBUM and I AM WOMAN were in the top 30. DAVID BOWIE ruled the roost, but the single of the same name, could not even scrape higher than number 20. The 3rd album for the POLICE (their 2nd charttopping album). KATE BUSH on her album included the singles "ARMY DREAMERS", and the Christmas hit "DECEMBER WILL BE MAGIC AGAIN" consequently getting a 2nd Charttopper too. DON MCLEAN had his best of. MADNESS blew the top ten apart, as did the SPECIALS. UB40 (on the small West Midland Indie label "Graduate") scored a number one with their first album. On the film front we all saw "BREAKING GLASS", and put the HAZEL O`CONNER album up there. SUPERTRAMP got a top 20 album, but the singles at that point were scarce. THE THREE DEGREES sneaked in with their greatest..Remember the joke: At the Three Degrees concert, only one of them turned up...and everyone put on their coats. Well, it was minus 2 degrees! ;)

 

The singles in Oct 1980:

01 01 DON`T STAND SO CLOSE TO ME - THE POLICE

02 06 D.I.S.C.O. - OTTAWAN

05 05 MY OLD PIANO - DIANA ROSS

06 03 ONE DAY I`LL FLY AWAY - RANDY CRAWFORD

07 12 AMIGO - BLACK SLATE

08 14 SEARCHING - CHANGE

09 08 ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST - QUEEN

10 20 KILLER ON THE LOOSE - THIN LIZZY

11 21 STEREOTYPE/INTERNATIONAL JET SET - THE SPECIALS

38 24 SUNSHINE OF YOUR SMILE - MIKE BERRY

39 30 MARIE MARIE - SHAKIN` STEVENS

40 NE ENOLA GAY - ORCHESTRAL MANOEUVRES IN THE DARK

 

(The vintage charts were compiled by Record Business magazine, for Independant Radio 1980).

 

THE POLICE with the top single of the week, also got top single of the year. OTTAWAN were the classy cheesey act of the year! STEVIE WONDER paid tribute to BOB MARLEY at 3, and BOB was at 12. MADNESS got their biggest single yet. DIANA ROSS took her old "Joanna" off the album "DIANA". BLACK SLATE had their best hit with "AMIGO"...which of course means "FRIEND". CHANGE and LUTHER VANDROSS scraped the top 10 with "SEARCHING". THIN LIZZY had problems with an escaped convict. QUEEN bit the dust down the chart, after peaking at 7. COFFEE and "CASANOVA" looked impressive, but stalled very quickly. SPLIT ENZ were the FINN brothers, basically CROWDED HOUSE. SWEET PEOPLE paid homage to a series of whistling birds, with a surprise hit. MATCHBOX got their biggest hit. BARBRA STRIESAND teamed up with the BEE GEES, and got her first and only number one. THE NOLANS pulled themselves a top ten hit, with lots of Radio 2 airplay. AIR SUPPLY were out of Australia...bit of a slight connection with a 90s remake, but the original definately the best. BLACK SABBATH got a re-issue from 1970, and the rock scene was pretty big. THE GAP BAND put away their oars, but could not do as well as their previous hit "OOPS UP SIDE YOUR HEAD". GILBERT O`SULLIVAN had a small comeback, and his first hit in 5 years. BAD MANNERS took a slow climb here, but did eventually make the top 3, with their biggest single yet. OMD also had their biggest hit yet, although "ENOLA GAY", peaked at 8 three weeks later. SHEENA EASTON had 2 similtaneous hits, but "MODERN GIRL" (which she sung on the BIG TIME with ESTHER RANTZEN in 1979) was a re-issue.

 

 

Hang on, and I will come back with the latest singles soon...

Thanks Dave :thumbup:

 

How close are the album sales between #2 to #5 and do the positions look like they could change by Sunday .....lots of questions especially since we have had no sales info this week :lol:

Well Sunday and everyone..Oasis are 5 - 1 on Kings Of Leon..surprise surprise! Then Will is pretty much well ahead of James...Rihanna is around 6,000 behind them. It won`t change by Sunday`s chart.

Yay for Britney & the Pet Shop Boys. :wub:

 

And woo for Girls being a somewhat flop! That'll show them!

cheers dave!

 

Do you have any inside info why The Courteeners fell from #5 to outside the top 20 OCC midweeks chart in a single day, from Tuesday to Wednesday? I notice the physical is #10 here, would you be able to give some idea of sales for that position? I'm guessing 2k max? Download sales for the track are very low. I just get the impression that some sales were removed...

Well Robbie..on Wednesday I spoke to a colleague on that, and was told that on Tues, there was a lot of download sales info missing on other songs. Mainly from iTunes..most of which were not included. Hence Courteeners being so high. Even Cage The Elephant were in the top 20, if I remember. Definately no more than 2k forn the physical of "That Kiss".

15 06 Duffy - Rockferry. What a drop! May be out top10 for 1st time? Any special reason to do people think or is everyone finally fed up with it/bought it?
15 06 Duffy - Rockferry. What a drop! May be out top10 for 1st time? Any special reason to do people think or is everyone finally fed up with it/bought it?

 

Duffy is still doing really well considering the number of albums she's sold & a lot of big artists are starting to release albums in the run up to Xmas.

Edited by truly talented

Cliff Richard still top 15 in the physical chart :o physcials must be at an all time low.
i think saturday sales could be pretty big for Oasis in the albums...since some places are selling it at a low price :)

10 13 SPOTLIGHT - JENNIFER HUDSON - =12

 

:o I really hope Spotlight can end up finally in the top 10 :cheer:

Wow, McFly have chances to be in Top40 for the fifth week! Faith Hill is falling like a stone when them are climbing on iTunes again.
15 06 Duffy - Rockferry. What a drop! May be out top10 for 1st time? Any special reason to do people think or is everyone finally fed up with it/bought it?

 

People may be holding out for the Deluxe Edition
