I joined on 4th Jan 1983 - which given as a start date a google trawl reveals the Phil Collins was No1 on the 15th Jan with 'You cant hurry love'.....

But...... that was nearly 2 weeks in to my trip the Swinditz, which leaves looking at the same site for the No1 immediately before the new year of 1982, and this one causes my spine to shiver.....

Dec 18th 1982 - renee and Renato 'Save your love for me' :PDT_Xtremez_09:

Mine was The Clash and 'Should I stay or Should I Go'. Quite fitting for a new recruit heading off to pastures new at Swinderby. All wet behind the ears and that. I'm sure I remember saying that phrase to myself many times during those 6 weeks of 'hell'. :PDT_Xtremez_19:
 
Boyz II Men - 'End of the Road' on the day I joined, followed by
Charles and Eddie - 'Would I Lie To You', and when I passed out
Whitney Houston - 'I Will Always Love You'
 
On 8th Oct 1996 ...

The Number 1 single was:
The Chemical Brothers - "Setting Sun"


The Number 1 album was:
Peter Andre - "Natural"

The Prodigy were screwed:raf:
 
Rat Trap - Boomtown Rats

Then pick the next hits from the 03 x RAF issue albums (everyone had them) for the next 9 months of training:-

Meatloaf - Bat out of Hell
Thin Lizzy - Live and Dangerous
Blondie - Parallel Lines
 
Swinderby on the radio (No 1's)

Uptown Girl, Only You (Flying Pickets) though on grant for most of that one, Pipes of Peace (DI hated it).

Swinderby on the tape players in the room.

U2 - Under a blood red sky and the best of the Jam (and god did I hate those records for ever more).

What I remember most, music wise was Simon Mayo in the morning playing the same fecking song at the start of his programme, forget the title but started with 'This is Jam Hot'. Fecking after 6 weeks of that wanted to punch the cnuts head in and stamp on his bollox.

Los Lobos - La Bamba

The mentions of Everything I Do reminds me of one of the rocks who was on 48 at the same time as me. Went to Colchester when it was no1 and was still there when he got out.
