Realised I have quite a few singles that need cleaning and sorting, they been sitting looking sad on a shelf in the spare room. Over the last 2 days I have been ultra-sonically cleaning them, cataloguing and listening to side As as I go. Most are pretty good and one to two are quite rare.
A trip down the pop chart memory lane. It amazes me the diversity of singles, generally a great deal of care is put into crafting them to try and get into the top 20, IMHO. Possibly the pinnacle of pop music creativity, the single.
Only 80 or so left to go.
