Off The Chart: 15 November 1987Before Elon Musk buys Off The Chart and drives it off a cliff, join us for a trip back to this day in 1987! We won’t be firing anyone or turning off any of the usual features such as a whole load of obscure, neglected and forgotten hits, a round up of the day’s events, tracks from three of the week’s new albums, a look at the Dutch chart, and we certainly won’t be discontinuing the top five in full, no matter how much you ask us to.

  • Which band tried to convince everyone they had a famous lead singer?
  • Which song was a top twenty hit for three different singers in less than six years?
  • And which duo was a springboard to massive success for one participant and complete obscurity for the other?

Tune in and find out!
