25 December 1988
A Tribe Of Toffs ‘John Kettley (Is A Weatherman)’
I love 1988 is dedicated to the best year in music.
The best year for pop.
The best year for hip-hop.
The best year for house, acid and dance.
The best year for hair, heavy and thrash metal.
The best year for adult orientated, classic, soft and hard rock.
The best year ever for the UK charts with more hits that year than any year previously.
The days when a song entered the chart at number 39 and slowly climbed its way to number 1.
The days when you take a bus to the record shop on a Monday after school to get that new limited edition Pet Shop Boys 7 inch.
The days when singles had to have a B side even if it was just an instrumental version.
