Up to this point the Wedding Present had two #1s with consecutive hits "Kennedy" and "Brassneck" but aside from those they have peaked at #7 and #8 a few times. This week they fly in at #8 with "Silver Shorts" and so are very likely to get a top 5 hit. And this after Three peaked at NM #16, two places lower than where it peaked in the UK chart.

There seems to be a pattern here than the song that was #4 in my chart moves to #1 in the combi-chart and then falls to #6 in mine. RHCP have already been #1 in the combi-chart so I don't think they'll go back there.

I think for this week I should post a video of my highest new entry

Like a lot of 1980s band's by 1992 Isle Of Wight Jazz Funkster's Level 42 were out of vogue and no longer getting their records playlisted by Radio 1. This UK #55 hit is my favourite Level 42 song, as it sounds more like Chris Rea meets Basia. Plus it has a very powerful lyric, with its video directed by a 19 year old Stephen Graham (yes the This Is England; The Street; Boiling Point; Snatch; Gangs Of New York; The Damned United; London Boulevard; etc actor); who would go on to direct videos by the rather more hip Arctic Monkeys; Sam Fender; Kasabian; Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds; Travis; & Babybird.

It's a first (and last) chart-topper for Def Leppard - Let's Get Rocked might not be as good as Animal, but it's outpeaked it when the main competition is oldies, not least Steve Harley coming back to a new peak of 2 17 years on from Make Me Smile going top 10. Kylie meanwhile continues to add her growing number of top 10's with Finer Feelings. My feeling is she's not going to stop doing that for another 30 years at least.

Two more oldies are back, with Squeeze's 1979 Cool For Cats is at 18, and Madness get another revived oldie with House Of Fun at 19 10 years on from peaking at 2. New at 29, Kim Wilde's forgotten fab Love Is Holy, 11-year-career and counting, and I'm hoping she does it when I see her for the 5th time next week. Brand New Heavies Never Stop at 51, Michael Jackson's firmly In The Closet at 60, and Woman In Chains is back again for Tears For Fears & Oleta Adams 3 years on from going top 10. Mariah Carey gets a another entry, The Mission are still goth-rocking, M People are starting to build up to big sales Someday soon, and John Cougar sneaks in for a decade of mostly-Mellencamp tracks.

Errol Brown Live at Poole Arts Centre

Errol had broken up Hot Chocolate (sadly) as one of my fave singles acts for 15 years in a row was the band, but in 1992 he was still touring their back catalogue. Oddly, most of my fave records either he didn't do or lacked a bit of oomph, and it was the funk ones that stood out, bar Emma, which is stark to start with, and remaining stark isn't too difficult.
