No surprise Donny Osmond made number 1, a very popular track when it was first released, Gary Glitter is pushing Osmond hard with "Rock And Roll (Parts 1 And 2)", which climbs from number 5 to number 2. Another good track in this week's chart is "Sylvia's Mother" by Dr Hook & The Medicine Show, the same can be said of Johnny Nash, who enters the top 20 at number 12, with "I Can See Clearly Now", another song from the 70s I really liked.
