Remembering the music of 1981, week by week, in 2021. New releases, new entries, new number 1s, plus indie favourites and album cuts, all from this week 40 years ago.
Week 2: 12-18 January
1. Phil Collins - In The Air Tonight
2. David Bowie - Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps)
3. Visage - Fade To Grey
4. Elvis Costello - Clubland. Released at the end of 1980 ahead of the upcoming new album
5. Buzzcocks - Running Free. Largely forgotten single from the fag-end of 1980. Smash Hits gave it a decent review although John Peel, and the record buying public, seem to have ignored it.
