Off The Chart: 27 August 1989We’re only going back a mere 35 years on this week’s Off The Chart, nothing to worry about. We’re looking at the UK singles chart from today in 1989 and playing two hours of obscure, forgotten and neglected hits. We’ll also have the usual three tracks from new entries on the album chart, a look at the day’s news stories, TV & radio highlights, the gig guide, the horror of the Arthur Dent Moment, the Mystery Cover Version, a hit from the Swedish chart and the top five in full to round things off.


Listen to Off The Chart on Noisebox Radio at 9pm every Tuesday, with a bonus hour of additional hits from the same chart at 11pm in Off The Chart Too! And don’t forget you can join in the show chat on the Noisebox Radio Discord server. If you’re not around, you can catch up on Mixcloud after that.
