The Invention of the Record
The very introductory record was invented way back in 1857 by a French scientist called Leon Scott. He was capable to record sound onto paper which had been blackened with black candle wax. This aweinspiring invention was known as a “phonoautograph”.
Twenty years later Thomas Edison developed the phonograph when he recorded sound onto wax cylinders. Then in 1887, ten years later, Emil Berliner adapted Edison’s idea to put sound on to a flat wax disc and the LP was born.
The UK Singles Chart
The UK singles chart started out in 1952, the original number one was Here In My Heart by Al Martino and it remained at number one for nine weeks. The New Musical Express (better known now as NME) is a frequent UK music magazine, published on a weekly basis since March 1952. It was the initial British paper to include a singles chart. In the 1970s it became the best-selling British music magazine.
The Music Cassette
The cassette tape was primary applied for recording dictations in offices nevertheless in 1964 it was started to be applied to fetch music to the public. Between the early 1970s and the late 1990s, the cassette was one of the two most mutual formats for prerecorded music alongside the LP. The compact disk was freed in 1983 and by the early 1990′s sales of CDs had overtaken that of cassettes.
UK Number Ones
The song ‘Spirit In The Sky’ has been number one in the UK on three occasions by three dissimilar artists. Norman Greenbaun, who wrote the song, freed the original in 1970, followed by Doctor and the Medics version in 1986. Gareth Gates reached the number one spot with it in 2003.
Frankie Laine’s ‘I Believe’, went to number one on three discerned occasions and for 18 weeks in total for the duration of 1953.
The Jackie Wilson song ‘Reet Petite’ was in the first place freed in 1957 but did not reach number one in the UK charts until 1986. 29 years and 42 days after the firstborn release.
The Beatles song ‘With A Little Help From My Friend’ also reached number one in the UK three times, though not by the Beatles themselves. Firstly for Joe Cocker in 1968, then by Wet Wet Wet in 1988. Finally hitting the top spot again for Sam and Mark in 2004.
‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ by Queen has reached the number one spot in the UK in four dissimilar years. Originally freed in 1975, it reached the top spot in November and was still there in early 1976. After lead singer, Freddie Mercury’s death in 1991, the song was re-released, hitting number one in December of that year and keeping on until late January of 1992.
Most Singles in the Top 75
The cast of ‘Glee’ have been making headlines ever since the show launched in May 2009. They hold the record for most Top 75 singles in a year, after hitting 45 last summer. But Michael Jackson managed 27 in one week (21 solo, five with the Jackson 5 and one with sister Janet), following his death in June 2009.

High quality
By Jeremy
Very high quality material used. The large fit my R6 perfectly. Its a little baggy so it should fit most sport bikes 1k and under. Would reccomend and buy again. It fits all the way to the ground so no more dirty rims.

Perfect!
By roxstar
I got the large sized cover even though I know my bike is a medium…but when I put it on it fit perfectly =) I don’t think it would fit on a bigger bike cause I have a 250r. So I recommened that you get a size bigger. Other than that it does the job =)

Good for large bikes stored indoors.
By Theophilus
I have a 2005 Honda Shadow VLX 600 with a windscreen and saddlebags. As a result, I followed the recommendations given about purchasing XL cover. I now wish I had purchased just the large, as the cover I got is ridiculously large for my bike. Because of its size and the fact that quit a significant portion of the cover rests on the group, it becomes dirty very quickly and pick up a lot of wind thus causing a lot of dust and debris to be blown under it and onto the bike. I have begun using external snaps to strap the cover tighter onto the bike. I should also mention that the cover is not water proof and with a good bit of rain your bike does get very wet. In fact, I often have to empty out my saddle bags of water each time it rains. It has led me to presume that the cover would be good for a bike stored indoors. If however you plan to store your bike outdoors, I would invest in a more water proof cover. Lastly, it is of benefit to not the cover is not blue and silver but rather black and silver.
