Top of the Pops - in the 70's

Pan's People 

Top of the Pops was the BBC's iconic weekly pop show. Every week it featured the top bands of the week, including the number one hit, new releases and anything that was going up in the charts. Each week there was also one number featuring "Pan's People" the GoGo dancers.

Growing up in England it was the way to keep up on what was stylish and what was going on in the pop and fashion world.

David Bowie a true style icon on Top of the Pops in the 70's.

My favorite style icon of the 70's Kate Bush on Top of the Pops.

Do you wish it was the 70's again? Do you want some cool 70's clothes?

Dusty Springfield - British pop singer of the 60's

http://www.socialtimes.com.au/dusty5.jpg

Dusty Springfield was a lady of soul. She was born in London to Irish parents and died a few years ago of cancer. The two songs that I remember best from her were: "Son of a preacher man" and "You don't have to say you love me". Both catchy songs sung with her sweet voice.

The most memorable thing about Dusty's style is her distinctive hairstyle.

Sandy Shaw - British Pop Singer of the 60's and 70's

http://www.bbc.co.uk/musictv/queensofbritishpop/photos/images/sandieshaw_866.jpg

Sandy Shaw was very popular in the UK in the 60's and 70's. Her most famous song was "Puppet on a String"

She also had a great sense of style so I am putting some of my favorite photos of her below.

 
Unlike Nancy Sinatra from my earlier blog who was famous for Go-Go boots, Sandy was famous for walking around barefoot - something that I do a lot of....

Nancy Sinatra

If you like go-go boots you may well remember Nancy Sinatra's song "These boots are made for walking". Nancy to me was a great fashion icon for the 60's and 70's, she always looked sexy and current.

Lulu Singer of the sixties

http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2009/09/12/article-1213074-007A497D00000258-927_233x423.jpg

As a true Scot Lulu is wearing a plaid skirt, I also love the other the knee wet look boots and the skinny rib top.

Lulu was a really famous singer in the UK for her hit "Shout" and was well known in the US for "To Sir with Love" starring Sydney Poitier wth Lulu. I have a fond place in my heart for that movie as the school was very similar to the one I attended in the 70's.

I love the clothes and hairstyles, not quite beehives.  I would sleep with rollers in the back of my hair every night to get that lifted look and then backcomb it every morning.

Lulu in the Eurovision Song Contest, singing her hit, "Boom Bang-a-Bang".

I always love to see redheads wearing pink!
