A pretty static chart this week with the sames songs in the top 10 as last week and only Kehlani dropping out (from 36) being replaced by Mumford and Sons ft Hozier.

So here's what we know so far for this week. Hopefully the IRMA website will be updated to include the full charts. EDIT Full charts now available.

Another one that Evanna seems to have problems with is the artist at 37 whose surname she pronounces as Sapeero (like Helen without the h) Also her use of the phrase "coming in at..." is starting to grate.

This was where the recaps came in very handy as Stuart confirmed that Lewis was at 14 and Disco Lines at 13.

I am hopeful that will change this week thanks to beatlened at UKMix who has provided the missing data but between last Thursday and Wednesday of this week I was on at concerts / comedy shows on 5 of the 7 evenings. And the evening I was hoping to make progress saw me making no progress as there was an issue when it came to sorting columns on the spreadsheet. My normal sort would be the most recent column, then the column before that and then the columns with the artist and song. Unfortunately if I started off with say column CA when I went to sort by column BZ that was missing from the drop down menu. I could put in another column and then go back and change it but that was a bit annoying and I spent ages trying to get it sorted. In the end I discovered that the whole office package required an update which fixed the problem straight away. Anyway I'm doing nothing much over the weekend so I'll be focusing on getting as much as possible done.

Sorry for the delay! Had a bit of a disaster last weekend with the spreadsheet I keep the charts on. Had started off ok on Saturday afternoon but when I went to add the singles chart that evening the file wouldn't open as it had become corrupted. Efforts to recover it were in vain and the best I could manage was a working copy which had all info up to and including week 19. That means that I have to redo weeks 20 to 37 which isn't going to be done overnight but which is well under way. At this point I have the NI Hit 40, Music DVD and Homegrown charts back and this week I'll be hoping to finish the Independent Albums and Compilations. The corruption of the spreadsheet has come at a bad time as I'm out quite a lot in the evenings at the monent. Rather than wait until I've caught up again I'm going to copy and paste from the IRMA site and will eventually go back and edit in the formatted versions. To start here are last week's charts. I'll add the new charts tomorrow as I'm heading out again tonight.

Friday saw the release of the new Ed Sheeran album and had a few listens to that - much better than Subtract which I thought was average. James Young was a famous comedian in Northern Ireland. To be honest I'm not sure what made me listen to him this week but although this album isn't on Spotify all but one of the tracks on it are on various compilations of his work so I was able to put together a playlist. This particular album was in our household back in the 70s so it brought back a lot of memories. There were a couple of recent tracks that have entered the singles chart. Olly Murs has taken off after growing slowly on me and on Friday I got to hear the new Gorillaz track featuring the mighty Sparks.

On Saturday night I went to see Hothouse Flowers who were playing as part of the Belfast Maritme Festival and prepared by listening to their debut album. The new entry from Alan Fletcher (a parody of Smokie's Living Next Door To Alice features on the Lighter Side of.. EP which I had picked up at his concert in August but hadn't got round to playing. Also heard the "electric" version of Born In The USA from the upcoming Nebraska reissue.

Supporting him was local singer brian Kennedy who treated the crowd to a selection of his biggest songs most of which feature on his double CD collection which enters the album charts. After his set Brian made his way to the merch stand where he signed CDs and posed for photos. Friday 29th saw 2 album releases of interest to me. I picked up my copy of the latest Now Yearbook from a local shop that day but had to rely on Spotify to hear Bryan Adams as Amazon didn't send the album out on time. Spotify was aso where I found the new Bon Jovi track and a reworking of Hollow Man with Bruce Springsteen.

Dior has been slowly growing on me in recent weeks and during the period covered by this chart I attended 2 concerts - the now annual Stiff Little Fingers "Putting The Fast In Belfast" (Johnny Lydon was supporting them as were Sham 69) and the fantastic Alan Fletcher Band. As mentioned previously Alan is best known for playig Dr Karl Kennedy in Neighbours. A really nice person. On the way in he was standing at the door checking tickets, he was able to see from the list of names who was on his mailing list and they were all told to mention this at the merch stand to get a discount on all purchases plus an exclusive keyring. Alan also took time during the interval and at the end of the show to meet everyone that wanted a photo or autograph.

Meanwhile I booked to see the Fureys again when they play their final UK concerts next March. Two tracks that really started to grow on me are Sapphire from Ed Sheeran and A Hand To Hold by Aslan and both make good progress in the chart. Spotify's DJ threw up John Parr and Black Star RIders this week.
