Pete Wylie's All Time Top Ten


Wah! Heat : Seven Minutes To Midnight


The November 13, 1980 issue of Smash Hits featured an All Time Top Ten list from Pete Wylie of Wah! Heat. The band's new single, the cold war anthem "Seven Minutes To Midnight", had just entered the independent charts at #3. Alan Lewis of Sounds described the single as " a force nine gale of jangly, trebly guitar and anguished vocal as Pete Wylie and company rip through a performance which is so intense as to be physically exhausting (and I'm talking about the listener!) A great record! Talk about totally wired.."



Pete's list has some huge surprises in it for those who may have never followed Frank Sinatra's career down the  alleyways of punk rock.
