I need to go and have a look at this again - my memory may be
playing tricks, but the test will surely be the 1977 chart (chosen by
Peelie himself). All i can really recall about this is that the
Motors were the unlikely band at #1 and #3, but the rocklist.net site
only lists numbers 1 - 13!
A web search doesn't turn up anything more than this, apart from the
fact that (supposedly!) Some Chicken's 'New Religion' was at #16.
