Top of the Pops Vol. 35

Sleeve Notes:

We think we’ve created a record in both senses of the word. Not only have we created the best-selling budget record of its kind in the world, but we believe that our “Top of the Pops” series (this album is No. 35) is the longest lived in the whole history of recording – and we’re still going strong!

This sort of thing just doesn’t happen by luck. It takes dedication, hard work and expertise – plus a little bit of luck – on our part; and judgement, discrimination, appreciation of good pop sounds and value for money on the part of all of you many, many thousands of pop enthusiasts who have helped us to create this unique record.

So, fans and friends, here it is, No. 35. Just glance at the 12 great songs we’ve chosen for you this time and we think you’ll agree that our back-room boys have done their homework; in fact, so important is the choice of tracks, that the Boss Man himself takes a lively and considerable part in this side of our business.

Have fun, folks!
