Slade take over the number 1 position in this weeks chart, with Glam Rock tracks occupying 3 places in the Top 5, Slade, The Sweet and Gary Glittter. Elvis Presley fly's into the Top 20 at number 8 with "An American Trilogy". The New Seekers enjoy another hit with "Circles" (a track I don't remember at all), which is at number 11. Donny Osmond is a big mover on this week's chart with "Puppy Love", up from number 13 to number 3. 

Gilbert O'Sullivan certainly had quite a few hits in the early 1970s, which I actuallyliked at the time!
