Off The Chart: 18 November 1983

Come back to this day in 1983 on Off The Chart as Steve and Julian cast an eye over the week’s UK singles chart. There’ll be some familiar hits, some vaguely familiar hits and hits you almost certainly haven’t heard before. All this plus three tracks from one of the week’s biggest albums, a track from the New Zealand chart, a look at the day’s events and the top five singles in full. Which group has had over one hundred different members who don’t play instruments? Whose latest hit was rejected as the farewell single by his previous band? And who’s celebrating Easter in November?
