May 23rd, 1980

Although FM had reached SA a year or two earlier, the AM station, 5AD was still dominating the airwaves. Some choice songs on this weeks chart but also a couple of real stinkers, with Skinny Girls by Alan O’Day being the standout in this category; holy crap did some people have questionable taste! If you’re really curious, I checked and a few folks have upped it on YouTube.

As far as the album chart goes they’re isn’t really a dud on there; of course, I say this now with nostalgic hindsight for my youth but back then I thought most of them were fucking shite!
