• Live out your fantasies here with this old chart from 1985

    From Chris Brown@21:1/5 to All on Sun Aug 8 16:11:35 2021
    Sadly, as you probably heard, Dusty Hill of ZZ Top has died, and there are four of his tracks here. There are also two by Glenn Frey (neither the obvious one) and three each by the still-alive Madonna and Bruce Springsteen. In fact, since I decided to
    post this chart I saw that a member of Kool & The Gang has also left us.

    Also, there’s a track here that was sampled prominently on a track in the 2004 chart.

    Playlists are here. Looks like the official upload of the Scritti Politti video was just in time.
