  • The Royal Scots Dragoon Guard remain number 1 for a third week, The Rolling Stones have a new entry at 18 with "Tumbling Dice", another track I don't recall, I did remember the single before this one "Brown Sugar", it was played at the school disco at Primary/Junior school, it was popular too, tracks by Greyhound and Neil Young are another 2 tracks I don't remember.
     

    Nilsson remains in the top 3 and Ringo Starr moves up to number 2, David Cassidy was very popular in the 1970s and I liked quite a few of his singles, but didn't buy any, I would buy my first singles in 1973, at this point I was always glued to my radio listening to the charts and also the chart show on Radio Luxembourg on a Monday night....they were the days!
