UK POP CHART HISTORY - MARCH 1972

Ex-Zombies frontman Colin Blunstone achieves his highest ever chart position as a solo artist this week. His beautiful reworking of The Moody Blues' 'Say You Don't Mind' peaks at a disappointing number 15.
Colin does, however, achieve one further visit to the top 20 nine years later in 1981, when along with Dave Stewart (no relation to the Eurythmic) they reach number 13 with their version of the Jimmy Ruffin classic 'What Becomes Of The Broken Hearted'.
