    Rod Stewart - Maggie May (1971)

    This is the big one that launched Rod Stewart's career in an accidental fluke. Originally the B-side, it was played on the radio in error instead of the original A-side "Reason To Believe" then all...

    This one-hit wonder in the USA somehow failed to catch on in the UK despite Kenny Everett's attempts to promote it by having Hot Gossip dance to it on his TV show. In a year when the charts were be...
