HAVEN COMBI RETRO-CHART W/B 13th JULY 1986

It’s a second week at the top of the Retro-Chart for Madonna as Papa Don’t Preach registers a slight increase in points. Of her five chart-toppers only Crazy For You spent a solitary week at the top.




Steve Winwood makes an impressive climb to number two with Higher Love but lagging a huge 59 points behind the current number one.

The Housemartins drop another place to number three with Happy Hour and Bananarama get a fifth week in the Top Five as Venus remains stuck at number four.

Stan Ridgway climbs into the Top Five with Camouflage, up nine places from its debut at number 14. 

Rod Stewart gets this week’s highest new entry as Every Beat Of My Heart storms in at number 12.

Biggest climb comes from It Bites with Calling All The Heroes, up 12 places to number 17.

And here’s this week’s Retro Chart in full….

22nd July 1986

It's 2 weeks on top for Madonna as some serious Stan-ning is going on - that's a Camouflage, though, in the top 10, along with Who Killed Cock Robin - oh no that was my toddler poem that mum used to read to me, I loved that poem, one of my earliest memories. It wasn't the sparrow with his bow & arrow, though. This one is a ballad though, and I'm surprised to see it made my top 10 as my memory of it was "S'OK".

Macca is Im-press-ed to be top 20, Hollywood Beyond rocket up to 19, Dollar are up a whopping 50 places for their first top 30 entry in 4 years, and UB40 are the highest new entry at 25, singing their own song this time, as opposed to a cover. Unlike Robert Palmer and his good cover of the Jam & Lewis track for Cherrelle, in at 29 with another video lookalike, I Didn't Mean To Turn You On he claims - I think he very much did mean to, judging by the video models. Lulu is also back, after 4 years away, and with a cover - of her own Shout. The original version started to sell immediately and for chart purposes both were combined. The 1964 teenage original is WAY better...

Also covering himself, sort of, is Jack Bruce, covering the Cream classic I Feel Free, a 60's classic. I've forgotten this version though! Five Star are bangin' out the quick hit singles, Kirsty MacColl and Chris Rea are both beach bound, Chaka Khan is still getting her I Feel For You boosted follow-up entries, while It Bites lower in the chart: Calling All The Heroes. Heaven knows we need them these days. Finally, my fave of the new tracks, maybe, is Rockin' With Rita, under-appreciated at the time, but both amusing, and a cracking unusual non-80's-sounding combo of acts on the Vindaloo label.

a lot of people on this site don't like him that much but I think he's made a few great songs:

Steve Hackett will perform in one more #1 in a few years time, and that one also reached #1 in the UK for a week.. He plays the Spanish Guitar solo bit in the middle of Queen's epic "Innuendo".
