The Caroline Countdown Of Sound,
|
|
Keith Martin worked for Radios Atlanta and Caroline South during 1964/65 but had left the station by 1966. He cannot remember how or why this chart came
into his possession, but he has kept it for over fifty years and has now, very kindly, contributed it to The Pirate Radio Hall of Fame. |
The original document had a number of hand-written notes and scribbles which we have removed where possible. This is what the page originally said, omitting the record label details to improve clarity. The asterisks indicate those records that are going up the chart: |
