not dead, am doing a book

[Stuart McHugh]

I'm afraid that I can be no help in either establishing that he  
referred to the 77 chart as a '50' or its true makeup, though the  
fact that he was broadcasting listeners' favourites in tandem with  
his own chart rings bells.
What I can recall is that he did it in rundown stylee, I can still  
remember my shock at The Motors appearing at 3 and then at 1 as well!  
(He'd dropped hints about the top of the chart so I can remember  
expecting 'Dancing the Night Away' being up there due to earlier  
comments and airplay, and 'Uptopwn Top Ranking' being a shoo-in, but  
'You Beat The Hell Outtta Me' was something of a surprise!)

Ah, memories. Or not.
