I was completely besotted with Debbie Harry as a youngster...biggest crush I've ever had, she was the complete babe at the time

Not even sure there was an official hit parade when I was born!.
ps....anyone know when the first charts appeared?

The official chart didn't start until 1970, but the NME charts are considered "canon" from 1952 to 1960, and the Record Retailer chart from 1960 to 1969. Pre 1952, there were sheet music charts.

Here's mine

 

[Muzzy]

'My Old Man's A Dustman', Lonnie Donegan.

Same for me lol!

Procol Harem - whiter shade of pale - what a bloody dismal boring song that is!!!!

I would have preferred something a bit more exciting than that!!!!
