THE HOTDISC TOP 40

This is a list of the Top 40 Most Popular Songs released on the Rush Released promotional CD. Each week DJs and media people who receive Rush Released send back their reaction sheets where they are given the chance to rate every song from 10pts to zero. This chart records the songs with the highest ratings. It is exclusively for clients of the Rush Released CD.  The Biggest movers and highest new entries each week are shown in yellow.   The chart is published weekly here, and also in Up Country, Scottish Country Music & Dance, Country Routes, Cross Country, Pathfinder and Southern Country magazines. You can now hear the Top 12 songs by clicking here and listen to Jackie Storrar's official Hotdisc Chart show here.
