John Aston's Collection


The Caroline Countdown Of Sound,
Saturday 17th September 1966

This Caroline Countdown of Sound is from John Aston's collection.
He saved it from his time working on the station.


Some of the type has faded and the presenter has added some scribbles on the page which we have removed where possible. This is what the document originally said, omitting the record label details to improve clarity. The asterisks indicate the records that are going up the chart:
