Also from Wales is Andy Fairweatherlow, who was a guitarist for Eric Claptons band for a while. SlRuOQ91DXo‎

Another good show for me, the quality of the music has been much better than most of the previous shows. Bristol Stomp was a big American hit for The Dovells in 1961, the band included Len Barry of 123 fame. Pop Quiz Question this week. Sex Pistols were on with a Eddie Cochran song, so which successful songwriter links both Eddie Cochran and Phil Everly?

You do know the answer, well done! :)

Grandmaster Flash were on the Sylvia Robinsons Sugarhill label, Sylvia had a US hit with Mickey with Love Is Strange in the 50's, anothe act who had a hit with a song with starnge in the title was Echo & The Bunnymen and their cover of the Doors song.

Good show this week, even enjoyed Boney M strangely enough. Teaser Question: what unusual thing do both Garys Gang and Dave Clark Five have in common?

808 state were signed to Trevor Horns ZTT label, also on the label was Seal - one of my faves of his Future Love Paradise www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tasDtq7028‎Similar

Kylie is on The Voice, surely that makes her cool? I don't get this policy so what if an act has been around for ages, if they bring out a good song they should just plays it fgs! Most young ppl probably not even fully aware that kylie or Robbie etc have been around so long. When I was young, we had the likes of Cher & Roy Orbison in the charts, I liked their music but didnt know (nor cared) they had been around since the 60's. (Until I bought British Hit Singles, ofcourse ;) )

Change dypers :heehee:

this is true, even more so considering that to stream a song could cost you virtually nothing at all. How much does streaming cost? £9.99 to listen to as much as you want or something?

This may sound stupid, maybe it would be worth having a court case for Saville - even though he's dead...I soppose it would be upto his family members to defend him if it were to happen.

I love Thompson Twins, one of my fave 80's bands, but Hold Me Now was not one of their best. 1984 was a good year for music but radio spoils it as alot of those songs are overplayed on radio today and kill the songs completley for me. I m Thinking Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, Radio Ga Ga etc

Go Gentle #10 outsold Radio #1 :o Surprised Shine My Shoes is not there, great song!

On the subject of double a sides, on the radio this morning they said Queen's Tie Your Mother Down from 1977 was a double a side, but all chart books, chart listings only list it as just an a sided single, can anyone clarify what is correct?

Sorry my mistake :hithead: , I thought Infamous meant notorious . Changed my post :)

The Beatles made their famous appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show in America http://entertainment.time.com/2014/02/08/t...ebruary-8-1964/ http://www.beatlesagain.com/the-beatles-on-ed-sullivan.html

It also has sales for Holiday on 795k , here http://www.officialcharts.com/features/off...op-10-hit-2280/

There was a alot of controversy in the mid 80's about Judus Priest, two teenagers in America killed themselves cause they apparently thought they heard subliminal messages in their songs.

I'm glad it didnt get to #1 its his worse song!. Anyhow it is his biggest seller by miles, which is probably better than a no.1

I didnt see Louise, I guess she is not doing the show or has she yet to appear?

Vernon Girls were one I hadnt thought of, I had the Paperdolls and The Caravelles. Beverley Sisters didnt make the top 20 during the sixties.

The biggest sellers are usually the ones that reach the most different demographics, i.e Adele, Gotye etc. Sometimes you can tell with sales, take for example boybands, alot of boybands average sale per single might be 250-350,000, then they'll have one single which will sell 800-900,000, signalling that it has reached a wider demographic than just teenagers. East 17 were a good example of this with Stay Another Day.
