Can't work out why Pick of the Pops is avoiding the year like the plague.
Rich	Still no sign of 1974 in the next month. 1981 and 1991 this coming weekend. 1977 and 1987 the next week. 1992 and 2003 the week after that. For some reason 1987 has favoured status on Pick Of The Pops nowadays. I can't imagine why. It might be time to drop the show an email to ask the question and see if it then suddenly appears in a few weeks time or not.
Chris	I am very surprised JK has not taken the bait on this rather delicious and mysterious 1974 story yet.

Next weekend it's 1969 and 1979, so five years either side of 1974 which they are giving a wide berth but proving they are more than willing to play the era and much older. Anything but poor old 1974. It's just so strange. Can't they just play the Steve Miller Band single: Living In The U.S.A and the B Side Kow Kow Calqulator on a loop?
