This Radio England Boss 40 came from a chart collector called Hans Blaauwbroek but he didn't originate it. In fact he can't remember where he got it from but he passed it on to Mary Payne who
kindly shared it with us. Our thanks to Hans, Mary and the unknown person who took the trouble to save it in the first place.

THE BOSS JOCK PICK OF THE WEEK
|
||
| When I Come Home |
The Spencer Davis Group |
|
* Other week's charts show Manfred Mann's recording of Just Like A Woman which suggests that both versions of the song were played on the station. |
Radio City's City Sixty for this week can be found here. Big L's Fab 40 and Caroline's Countdown Of Sound for this week can be found on the Radio London website. There are a number of other offshore charts listed on The Pirate Radio Hall of Fame. Full details here. Last week's Boss 40 is here. The next SRE chart we have is for 17th September, by which time it had become a Fun 50. |
