A couple of days ago I posted 40 tunes of the Record Mirror Disco Charts places 90 - 41. Here are places 40 to 1. Great music from a great era. Move your feet to classics from Candido, Patrick Hernandez, Shalamar, Earth, Wind & Fire, Van McCoy, Gap Band, Dynasty, Herb Alpert, Chic, Donna Summer, Edwin Starr, Kool & The Gang, Gene Chandler, Gibson Brothers, Sister Sledge, Al Hudson, Michael Record Mirror is very proud of its chart coverage. And with good reason. Record Mirror was the first UK paper to publish an album chart back in 1956 and here in 1982 it is the only music paper that publishes what is regarded by many as the official single and album charts – the BMRB charts used by the BBC. Hi everyone, I'm new to this Forum, but an avid lover of chart facts and stats, so please bear with me, as I find my feet. I am assisting with the running of a Blog which reproduces James Hamilton's weekly Disco Page and Disco Charts from Record Mirror Magazine, beginning with his very first column on 28 June 1975 and has just about reached the end of 1979. I’ve just come across a load of Hi-NRG charts from 1982. They were published in Record Mirror, and compiled from DJ returns, originally as the ‘gay & ‘boystown’ chart, although you didn’t have to be gay to appreciate the songs that were listed.
Ian Levine, just back from Florida, found a Ft. Lauderdale record shop celled Spec’s Music which imports 15 copies of Record Mirror every week so local DJs can stay ahead with our Hi-NRG and Disco charts!

Here you can find an archive of scans of Record Mirror charts http://scans.chartarchive.org/UK/ The website American Radio History is building an online archive for Record Mirror, the weekly UK music paper that ran from 1954 to 1991. It started the 2nd UK singles chart in 1955 after NME began theirs in 1952. Though they ceased running their own chart in 1962, instead starting carrying the Record Retailer chart. The chart also spawned imitators - Record Mirror launched its own chart in 1955 and Melody Maker in 1958. The forerunner of today's official chart first appeared in the music trade publication Record Retailer (now Music Week) in 1960 as a Top 50, but was not immediately recognised as the definitive chart in the country.
