"The first Springbok Hit Parade LP
was released in 1970. This series was started in South Africa by Ken
Talbot who originated the idea. They were initially produced by
Robert Schroder and later by David Gresham. These albums were
intended to give people cheap and easy access to the hits of the day
as played on the Springbok Radio Top Twenty broadcast on Friday
nights and hosted by David Gresham. The Springbok Hits albums were
recorded by various session musicians, including some very well-known
artists such as Mutt Lange, Stevie Van Kerken and Mike Pilot, and
released by MFP (Music For Pleasure)"
- Brian Currin.
Unfortunately, the Springbok Hit Parade LP series stopped at number 74.
