UK AT EUROVISION



Eurovision Song Contest 1975 and 76/77

After the previous excitement of Brighton last year and the win by Abba, the Eurovision became even more important. This was 1975, and the contest was held in Sweden. The  British entry was The Shadows with Let Me Be The One. A record that did nothing really, although it managed to limp into 9th place.

UK Top 40 5 March 1977

Elvis Presley, Detroit Spinners, Fleetwood Mac, Brotherhood Of Man, Van McCoy and more. Welcome to the UK Top 40 for week ending 5th March 1977. Its actually a top 39. I didn't have the new entry at number 34 namely Les Gray (he of 'Mud' fame) called 'Groovy Kind Of Love'. However, the remaining 39 chart hits are here with a few 1960 jingles mixed in. Starting at track 1 will be chart position 40 and ending at track 39 with the chart position 1. In between are hits nobody plays and are by and large seen as obscure hits.
