  • There is no shifting The Royal Scots Dragoon Guard from number 1, however, Vicky Leandros is closing in on top spot. My favoutite T-Rex track "Metal Guru" enters the UK chart at number 9, really liked it when I heard it back then. Another track I really enjoyed back then, was the Hurricane Smith track "Oh Babe, What Would You Say".

    Another football song, this time by the Leeds United team, is at number 20, Leeds were a very successful team in the 70s.
