Off The Chart: 22 April 1983

Off The Chart: 22 April 1983

All back to ours for another Off The Chart as Steve and Julian dissect the UK singles chart of 22 April 1983, playing some of the hits you don’t hear so often, three tracks from a featured album, a hit from a foreign chart and the week’s top five in full. We’re playing all sorts from Bananarama to Iron Maiden, as well as discussing the day’s news and TV and radio shows. Whose guitar solo made a studio speaker catch fire? Which Radio 1 show was a primitive version of Spotify? And which Eurovision act was made up of three people with rhyming names? Click PLAY to find out!
