Plot
It may seem hard to believe but once upon a time Top Of The Pops served a purpose, a swift, if glib, summary of the popular music people liked to listen to; rather than TOTP's now, which is a swift, glib summary of popular music that people like to listen to .no, that's not right. Top Of The Pops 40th Anniversary is a disturbingly enjoyable nostalgia trip which reminds you that musicians were still churning out sh*t as well as genius even in the 1960s (though most of that sh*t was at least original).
