* There appears to have been a mistake either at Record Retailer or at Caroline House. Nine positions have two records listed in each place and, in each case, one is the record that was in that position last week. We think that the one from last week should have been deleted but maybe someone forgot. They do not appear in the Stonewashed Collection listing. We have put them in italics. |
The Radio London Fab 40 for the same weekend can be found on the Radio London web site.
