UK Top Ten: June 1976

The long hot summer of 1976 was only just getting started. With snotty-nosed punks on the horizon, the British public sent a motley collection of singles into the top ten of the UK charts. Novelty act The Wurzels, talent show winners Our Kid and country icon Dolly Parton rubbed shoulders with more established 70s acts such as Wings, Bryan Ferry and of course Rod the Mod. Topping the lot were Liverpudlian soulsters The Real Thing. Pretty much all of this selection are memorable for one reason or another.
