December already! We’re heading back to this day in 1982 for this week’s Off The Chart, a time when Channel 4 was barely a month old, The Jam had just announced their split and Toto Coelo were already down the dumper. Join us for two hours of hits you might not remember, three of the week’s hot new albums, a look at the day’s goings-on, a quick look at the Dutch chart and the top five singles in full.
- Who had his only solo number one hit fourteen years after hitting number one as part of a group?
- Which rock legends’ final studio album included a track that was recorded live twelve years earlier?
- And which single in the top five was written about another act in this week’s top forty?
Tune in and find out!
