Simon Park Orchestra - Eye Level No.1 2ndwk September 1973 UK
Simon Park Orchestra - Eye Level (Original Vinyl)(RadioSpeed) Got to No.1 in the second week of September 1973 in the United Kingdom. Uploaded by former Radio DJ John Magnetron. The Picture of the Fair Hair'd Man in this vid' is not Simon Park, it's the Guy from Van' Der Valk, the TV Series And Going by the Guinness Book of Hit Single Records and the British Book of Hit Singles, which was compiled from information that was gathered by organizations such as the British Market Research Bureau, the New Music Weekly and Gallup. As well as falling back on the overlay of chart music seen on other Internet sites which reflects chart positions of music in the same periods. These Chart positions should, therefore, be the same as the BBC Chart positions as they were played at the time. But it should be noted that the said ‘book entries’ are found in these uploads and that chart positions from ’The Official Chart Company Internet site’ are not the same reflection although similar. The importance of the Public Playing the original Vinyl on certain internet sites, are recognized and appreciated in certain professional fields such as Radio, as it helps program organizers check that the tracks that are now used from Compact Disc, Mp3 Wav and Wma tracks of the same music, are, in fact, the definite article and not re-recordings or the same music played at a different speed. (RadioSpeed) in the UK was not a definite or purposeful difference, but was about 44,43 or 42 R.P.M caused by both, in different Radio Studios, cases of ’loss’ such as, Electrical, and Mechanical, heat resistance and, more so, drag from the Tone Arm. In Cases where a Record Deck had a variable speed, it is possible that the DJ’s made them turn that slightly bit slower so as, more often, over run, ‘News Time’ etc, as you could always fade the record out, but a DJ’s Nightmare is always being left with nothing to say, the minute before the hour. So a song played now at (RadioSpeed) such as it was unpredictably during, for example, the 1970’s, the equable slower speed from the past, will bring back more memories than any old nostalgic tune that has somehow, now, speeded up. Of Course, The re-productive qualities of 45's through these sites are not good enough for professional use!
