Roy has chosen his number one record because it was the first song that he ever emailed to someone who he is very close to after they had been good friends for some time.(This record should be playing in the background while you are reading this page)



Mel C. is still one of the Spice Girls and although rumours are flying about that they are to split there are no definate signs at the moment. She released this record on her own in 1999 and it went to Number 1 in the charts but only stayed there for one week.



Roys number 2 was released in 1982 and went to the Number 1 spot on the 19th February 1983 and stayed in the charts for 12 weeks.



Roys number 3 is by Buddy Holly who was tragically killed in a plane crash. This record entered the UK charts on the 20th June 1958 and reached Number 5 and stayed in the charts for a total of 14 weeks.



Roys Number 4 is by Elvis Presley the "KING" of rock n roll. This track entered the charts on the 17th June 1972 and reached Number 8 in the UK charts. It stayed in there for 11 weeks.



Number 5 of Roys selection was by Juice Newton, an American female vocalist who entered the charts on the 2nd May 1981 and reached number 43 and only stayed in the charts for 6 weeks.



Number 6 by Dexys Midnight Runners came into the charts on the 3rd July 1982 and easily reached the Number 1 spot. It stayed in the charts for 17 weeks.



Number 7 was Bonnie Tyler again (thinks Roy might have a thing about her lol) . This entered our charts on the 3rd December 1977 and stayed in there for 12 weeks.



Number 8 in Roys list is by Clarence Clearwater Revival.



Number 9 is Gloria Gaynor who entered the charts with this record on the 3rd February 1979 where it went to Number 1 and then again on the 26th June 1993 it was re released and entered the charts again where it reached number 5 and stayed in the charts for a further 10 weeks.



Finally number 10 by Nazareth a British group who spent 75 weeks on the charts throughout the 1970's. This track came from their EP "Hot Tracks" and entered the charts on the 24th September 1977 and stayed in the charts for 11 weeks reaching its highest place of number 11.



ROYS MUSICAL MEMORY

In the late 1950's I used to frequent the 2 I's Coffee Bar in London mainly to listen to Screaming Lord Sutch and Wee Willy Harris. During the interval another unknown singer came on named Harry Webb (not my style). Look where Harry is today........SIR Cliff Richard......... Roy
