Off The Chart Gold: 27 August 1984Steve and Julian’s summer holiday is nearly over – they’ll be back next week with new shows, but today it’s the last edition of Off The Chart Gold! Join them for a trip back to this day in 1984 with two hours of forgotten and half-remembered hits, three of the week’s new hit albums, a hit from the West German chart, a review of the day’s events and the top five singles in full.

  • Which hit was named after a late ’70s Liverpool supergroup?
  • Which track on today’s show was written about one of the other acts on today’s show?
  • And which song was number 1 and number 2 in Switzerland at the same time?

Tune in and find out!
