HAVEN COMBI RETRO-CHART W/B 25th OCTOBER 1987

A couple of quick updates....

The Pet Shop Boys 100% record continues as Rent tops the chart to become their seventh number one.




In a little under two years they have matched the records set by Duran Duran and Madonna to tie on seven chart-toppers apiece.

Highest new entry is from Whitesnake, straight in at number 15 with Here I Go Again.

Biggest climb is from George Harrison as Got My Mind Set On You leaps 26 places to number 9.

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

T’Pau follow up their number two smash Heart And Soul, gong one better with China In Your Hand, as it reaches the top of the chart.

Highest new entry is from The Communards as Never Can Say Goodbye enters at number 18.

Biggest climb is from Freddie Mercury and Montserrat Caballe with Barcelona, which climbs 23 places to number 16.
