Gamblin Man / Puttin on the Style, by Lonnie Donegan & His Skiffle Group (their 2nd of three #1s)
2 weeks, from 28th June 12th July
Kicking off Part III, we come across our first double A -side. What to do here?
To be honest, what with me being a bit young to remember the days when vinyl was the only way to consume music rather than the expensive self-indulgence it is now, Ive never really understood the concept of a double A-side. Who decided that the B-side on a particular record was suddenly the equal of the main single? The artist? The record label? The DJs?
Double A-sides were still a thing long into the s. The final chart topping double A was Babys Coming Back / Transylvania by McFly in , while I vaguely remember Oasis with the sort of absurd bravado that Oasis did so well releasing a triple A-side circa So it is something well encounter pretty often on this countdown
