[Music] Top of the Pops 1987

[Stato]

Did anyone catch Hot Shot Tottenham on TotP on BBC4 earlier this evening?

The footage they used was from this appearance live on Blue Peter. Gary Stevens is having the time of his life clapping out of time and emulating Pat Sharpe in his choice of haircut. Look who else pops up at 1:13 sporting a nice eighties Micky Pierce 'tache

Same as. Been watching this on series link for the last year or so. Great fun... Glenn & Chris were on last week.

The charts were much more interesting back then. When they do the chart run down, you can see songs that come in as new entries as low as in the 30s, but they still winged their way into the top ten, as they were ‘growers’ ... It just doesn’t happen like that anymore.

Definitely enjoyed 1983 this evening and 82 last week, happy days.

Depends how old you were in the 80s

On again now if anyone wants to see Chris Hughton on TOTP

Although 13 to 15 when punk was in full swing, the 80s were my genre for going clubbing and stuff. Loved much about music from this era until Stock, Aitken and Waterman [anti] rocked up and ruined music.

Some great stuff on BBC4 last night, TOTP 87/83, Soft Cell, Synth pop documentaries.

 

[Papak]

The Soft Cell documentary was good, time has not been kind to Dave Ball compared to Marc Almond...

Young and old still taken in! Both thought it was something new and interesting!
