Blair's Ugly Rumours: Peace Benefit Recording Flop?




The LoL story here reckoned the Respect folks would triumph with their record download and certainly make top ten with the Ugly Rumours cover version of War which was once and still remains in good company a guaranteed floor filler from Edwin Starr. But, alas, at the time of writing the recording was not yet in the top 100. It has to be said that the Respect target of 30,000 downloads is all very well, but charting top 10 is still possible with a few hundred physical sales in the right shops.

POSSIBLE STRATEGY: Go back to the story here and download a few copies for next week's chart? Or press 1000 CDs and stick them in the right shops - and buy them back quick as you like in the old capitaliste styl-ee.
