40 Year Itch : UK Top 30 for April 28. 1973


While three of the top 6 songs were sung by either an Osmond or David Cassidy, the UK pop chart for April 28, 1973 balanced the shlock with real rock. Geordie --featuring future AC/DC singer Brian Johnson --would soon see "All Because of You" reach #6 on the UK chart. The highest charting debut was another classic : Wizzard's "See My Baby Jive".
