Is it supposed to be a Top 40??, obviously an American chart?

Likely, ain't no way the Allman Bros, Marshall Tucker Band and Lynyrd Skynyrd are making a UK top 40.

John Peel's festive 50?

Looks more like a listener's Top 30 broadcast on Radio Caroline around 1976/1977 except there are more than thirty songs in the list and there's nothing by Deep Purple or Pink Floyd in there.

Agree and we had a lot of "bubblegum" pop in the early 70's, like Middle the Road, Racey etc plus the early Disco sound which America didn't seem to have

That's lovely. Many councils used to fit them in new dwellings back when councils were allowed to do good things.

1973?

It's a slow morning ; I've checked the release dates for about half the songs, and the latest is 1973, so you win a gold star !

Had my usual 1970s salad : cheese, onion, tomatoes, sausage roll, beetroot, lettuce, egg. I also had something which I've never had before - brawn - boiled pig's head don't you know. Now eating 1930s salad.

That’s the first thing I thought, but it’s not.
