The Spinners make their debut whilst a song they will be in the charts with covering 19 years later is currently at #6.
I commented on that when it came up on one of my "1980 TOTP" episodes. (In 2015 I created 4 episodes of TOTP myself to fill in the summer gap of 1980. Each one was 2 weeks apart).

Love that Bobby Vee record.
Gee Whiz is one of my favourite Clff records - it was actually never released as a single in the UK - the C in the catalogue number shows that it was a Continental release.
The record company convened a panel of fans to choose the next Cliff single - Please Don't Tease came 1st and Cliff's favourite Nine Times Out Of Ten was third.
Gee Whiz was second but for whatever reason they decide not to issue it here.
Word spread around that it could be specially ordered through the record shops and so many fans did this that it charted.
When it began to sell in large quantities although never offiially released here Columbia made sure it was freely available to retail.
Maybe this was the first record to chart in the UK on import sales only?

Yeah I love the Bobby Vee song, it was very populor in my house growing up, my parents would have been 13/14 when these came out so most likely their first love in terms of music and they were still playing them on repeat in 1990 whilst complaining that music isn't as good as it used to be, all 3 of my recent #1s fit this trend, until I got into music big when I was 13 these were probably 3 of my most listened too songs
Billy Fury - Halfway To Paradise (2 weeks) Del Shannon - Hats Off To Larry (6 weeks) Bobby Vee - Take Good Care Of My Baby (1 week)
(weird how everyone seems to fully submerge themselves into music around about 13 years old)

(weird how everyone seems to fully submerge themselves into music around about 13 years old) I became a music fan in 16 years old, when my country got a local version of MTV. Steps, Geri Halliwell, Britney, Shania Twain and many others. I still love them now in 37.
