NUMBER ONES OF THE FIFTIES. Sunday, 1 August 2010. 1959 Russ Conway: Side Saddle. Perhaps because one of his fingers had already been shredded courtesy of an accident with a bread slicer.

NUMBER ONES OF THE SEVENTIES: 1979 Anita Ward: Ring My Bell

NUMBER ONES OF THE SEVENTIES. Friday, 9 October 2009. 1979 Anita Ward: Ring My Bell. Actually, that's one of my favourite bits of in-song innuendo since Nina Simone pouted 'I Want A Little Sugar In My Bowl', with the tone made all the racier by Ward's obvious delight at the thought. But it's a far better example of the hedonistic pleasure that, after all, disco was meant to be all 'about'. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). NUMBER ONES OF THE FIFTIES.

NUMBER ONES OF THE SEVENTIES. Sunday, 25 October 2009. 1979 Pink Floyd: Another Brick In The Wall Part Two. Refrain, a line that would only become relevant in the context of the album as a whole and of Waters' central thesis that alienation breeds an extreme fascistic outlook and a tendency to look for scapegoats to pin your own ills on (well this is still prog after all).

NUMBER ONES OF THE 2000'S: May 2010
http://2000snumberones.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
NUMBER ONES OF THE 2000'S. Sunday, 16 May 2010. 2004 Band Aid 20: Do They Know It's Christmas. Third outing for a song that has shifted from the status of freshly minted to old warhorse before my very eyes, 'Do They Know It's Christmas' is the James Bond or Dr Who of the charts; the thematic core remains constant while the 'actors' playing the part of the central character(s) change. And just like on its last outing. Manage to harness some of the bigger names from contemporary popular music. And so maybe...

NUMBER ONES OF THE SEVENTIES: 1979 The Police: Message In A Bottle
http://seventiesnumberones.blogspot.com/2010/04/1979-police-message-in-bottle.html
NUMBER ONES OF THE SEVENTIES. Sunday, 18 October 2009. 1979 The Police: Message In A Bottle. The fact that The Police were a) a trio of blonde. Pretty boys who, b) played reggae has always been an anathema to many. As one who was there, I remember the very title of 'Message In A Bottle's parent album ' Reggatta. They weren't unique in this either -. Reggae was big business down at The Roxy too, courtesy of DJ Don Letts. The Clash, The Ruts, The Members, Stiff Little Fingers, Public Image Ltd et. Everybod...

NUMBER ONES OF THE SEVENTIES: 1979 Dr Hook: When You're In Love With A Beautiful Woman
http://seventiesnumberones.blogspot.com/2010/04/1979-dr-hook-when-youre-in-love-with.html
NUMBER ONES OF THE SEVENTIES. Friday, 23 October 2009. 1979 Dr Hook: When You're In Love With A Beautiful Woman. Dr Hook had been purveying their own brand of country tinged pop since the late sixties, but even such old hands as them found that disco thang. Irresistible, and 'When You're In Love With A Beautiful Woman' comes attached to a bleached white ' Rock Your Baby. Groove that although out of time in 1979, suited their audience and the more laid back barroom vibe of the tune to a tee. 1979 Ian Dury...

NUMBER ONES OF THE SIXTIES: 1969 Zager And Evans: In The Year 2525 (Exordium And Terminus)
http://sixtiesnumberones.blogspot.com/2011/03/1969-zager-and-evans-in-year-2525.html
NUMBER ONES OF THE SIXTIES. Wednesday, 13 October 2010. 1969 Zager And Evans: In The Year 2525 (Exordium And Terminus). Yes indeed, of 'Plan 9 From Outer Space' proportions, and it doesn't help that Rick Evans' high and mighty vocal casts him as a would be Nostradamus demanding to be taken seriously; it makes the clog handed lyrics and crowbar rhymes faintly ludicrous, especially when that highfalutin title promising something approaching quasi academic stature.

NUMBER ONES OF THE SIXTIES: 1969 Rolf Harris: Two Little Boys
http://sixtiesnumberones.blogspot.com/2011/03/1969-rolf-harris-two-little-boys.html
NUMBER ONES OF THE SIXTIES. Saturday, 16 October 2010. 1969 Rolf Harris: Two Little Boys. Former UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher is renowned for many things, but pop punditry is not one of them. Nevertheless, of her few recorded pronouncements in this field, two appear within these pages. The first was ' Telstar. As the kiss of death), but clearly something. Within Morse and Madden's 1902 song struck a chord with her. Climb up here Joe, we'll soon be flying, I can go just as fast with two. You can al...
