“Fame, makes a man take things over”
Congratulations are due to David Bowie on the news that the 40th anniversary picture disc of Fame (released July 24), has gone to #1 on the latest UK Official Vinyl Singles Chart Top 40.
Having entered the chart at #2 last week, steady sales have meant the limited edition has now taken the top spot.
Fame was David Bowie’s very first #1 single when it topped the American Billboard Hot 100 during the week of 20 September 1975.
It seems Bowie fans are on a soul trip right now, with the following three bits of plastic in the Top Thirty:
#01 FAME
#21 YOUNG AMERICANS
#25 KNOCK ON WOOD
Plastic Soul pun fully intended.
