UK Number 40s: Young Steve & The Afternoon Boys - I'm Alright (1982)

 


This was the first of 3 charting singles by former Radio 1 DJ Steve Wright, but it was the only one to make the Top 40. It's a novelty record done in the style of Chas & Dave.

Young Steve was 28 at the time of this record which isn't very young in pop music terms. This was the time he was doing the afternoon show on Radio 1.

Years later a member of his Radio 1 show posse would have greater success in the charts with a novelty record called "I'll Be Back" by Arnee & The Terminators which made the Top 5.
