    Great record. Could have been a lot worse.

    The number 1 album when I was born was Led Zeppelin IV.

    Which is a much better ("cooler") thing to tell people than the number 1 single that week ..... which was "Ernie (The Fastest Milkman in the West)", by Benny Hill.

    However, if you combine the two it would explain why I love long guitar solos and chasing scantily-clad women around!
    I already knew the number 1 single on the day I was born was the homoerotic cringefest that is David Bowie and Mick Jagger's cover of Dancing in the Street, so I was inspired by your post to go down the album route in hope of finding something cooler.

    Same as my sister. Not exactly a classic!

    It is a classic. I think Oldham Athletic adoped it as their theme.

    I think you'll find it was Guy Mitchell... And it certainly isn't Rockabilly music.  :D

    I'd like to think they were predicting the next time Charlton would score 3 goals in a game.
