Chart Music: the Top Of The Pops Podcast

#68 (Pt 4): 1.5.80 – The Ken Of The Eighventies

Neil Kulkarni, Simon Price and Al Needham hit the final straight on this very decent episode of The Pops. After getting our obligatory serving of the Nolans, it’s the double-Harringtoned attack of The Beat, Kate Bush prepares to go Zorbing in a nudist camp, there’s a GLORIOUS Number One, and then we have to listen to Johnny Logan’s pain over some kaleidoscopic studio lights. And a BPT update! <a href="https://bit.ly/CM68vids" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Video Playlist </a>| <a href="http://chartmusic.libsyn.com/rss" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Subscribe</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ChartMusicPodcast/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/ChartMusicTOTP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Twitter</a> | <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/17nHuE5PtP4OaYbq76yT0B00ZZ5hv3ismr-26idmmKo0/edit" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Chart Music Wiki</a> | <a href="https://www.patreon.com/chartmusic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Patreon</a> Hosted on Acast.

The podcast that takes one random episode of Top Of The Pops - the greatest TV Pop show ever - and breaks it down to its very last compound. Created by Sarah Bee, Neil Kulkarni, Taylor Parkes, Simon Price and David Stubbs (who all wrote for Melody Maker) and hosted by Al Needham (who didn't), it's an unflinching gaze into the open wound of pop culture and a celebration of Thursday evenings past.
