Radio 270 Top 40,
|
|
This Radio 270 Top 40 came from a chart collector called Hans Blaauwbroek but he didn't originate it. In fact he can't remember where he got it from but he passed it on to Mary Payne who kindly shared it with us. Our thanks to Hans, Mary and the unknown person who took the trouble to save it in the first place. |
