TOTP 2006
2006 sounded the death knell for the British institution that was 'Top of the Pops'. In recognition of this momentous occasion and in tribute to the show that lasted 42 years (count em) the ill-ec-tro-nic is paying tribute by publishing its very own Top 40. (This is mine, RAW and Bauer's to follow hopefully) The show first aired on January 1 1964 and the first act were The Rolling Stones, introduced by Sir Jimmy Saville (pictured). Incidentally Jimmy Saville was the first ever DJ to use two turntables and a microphone way back in 1946! so that he could provide an uninterupted mix of music.Langer’s Top of the Pops Top 40 of 2006
