Yep, i'd agree! I always avoid playing Gary Glitter at my discos these days! This chart just shows how diverse musical tastes in the 70s were!

Gary Glitter did make some cracking tunes though...seems unfair he is barred from airplay and Jonathan King in his many disguises is not and is reaping in the royalties... Anyway, loved the #1! The 70s were ace!

Yes, you hardly hear anything by Gary Glitter - the only ones I think I've heard are I'm The Leader Of The Gang (I Am), and Rock And Roll.

I still play Rock n Roll Christmas quite often (though not usually at this time of year). But I think this particular title could be considered inappropriate!
