    I have loads of old Record Mirrors containing Hi-energy charts & James Hamilton's page. They're all at my dad's in Staffordshire as I've not got any room for them in our house but if you want copies I can find 'em & get 'em to you somehow; shouldn't be too difficult as we live in the same city!

    On the Hi nrg years, it would make fascinating reading for the handful of us still interested in the music

    "History of disco" books always mention HINRG briefly but it would be soooo cool to have an entire book on this genre... Filled with loads of info on the artists/producers/Djs and pictures of the original 12" singles artwork etc.....

    Record Mirror HINRG chart

    Was the Record Mirror HINRG chart based on actual 12" record sales or on dancefloor reaction/DJ returns ? It was a great chart and it was a great guide as to what was hot on the HINRG dancefloors at the time...Those were the days..... :D

    They were based on club play from selected nightclubs. I think all the James Hamilton Dance charts were club play charts.
    Well certainly the soul/Dance charts, Hinrg charts and Pop dance charts.

    I had a feeling they might have been based on club DJ playlists....I remember the national club chart was a TOP 100.
    As I recall the HIRG chart was Top 40.

    Yep. Gay Dance chart started at 20 in 1982, then expanded to 30, then it got renamed to Boystown, then Hinrg, the expanded to 40.
    The national was always 100 and the Pop was combination of
    everything including 'Pop' 12" also.
    I think you might be able to find some old copies of Record Mirrors at Record fairs but for how much.......wouldn't 'ave a frigging clue!

    Luckily our fellow Board member SANDRA DEE has been in touch and has kindly offered to provide me with copies of all the HINRG charts :D
