poptimists1993 and yes it's the SUMMER OF RAGGA, all 3 hits of it. During the early 90s every summer was going to be the Summer Of Ragga but this one actually WAS, sort of. What happened to them all? Snow turned into an N@zi! Shaggy hooked up with Rayvon! Shabba said bad things and was DISSED on The Word by a rockabilly revivalist! And meanwhile the rest of the charts were turned over to proving the proposition that anybody can rap - Brian Harvey, the crusty bloke from Stereo MCs, him out of Capella, you name it they tried it.
The dog that isn't really barking in these polls is Grunge, which was a presence in the charts but whose practitioners didn't seem to want it on Now comps (or the compilers considered it too horse-scaring).
Meanwhile on Now 23 East 17's "House Of Love" topped the poll by one vote, ahead of ABBA, with Eezer Goode in third.
[Poll #673545]
