If you’ve never been able to get past Noddy’s fondness for tartan and Dave Hill’s taste in hairstyles, cum on feel the hits as we count down the 10 best Slade songs of all time.Released in 1971, it took the band straight to No 1 in the UK charts and kept them there until they get unceremoniously toppled by Benny Hill’s Ernie (The Fastest Milkman In The West) a month later. Slade effectively renders every past Slade hits collection redundant, as remastered sound and a sharp eye for all the band's U. All tracks are written by Noddy Holder and Jim Lea except "Get Down and Get with It" by Bobby Marchan, "Look Wot You Dun" by Holder, Lea and Don Powell, and "Radio Wall of Sound" by Lea No.

Since the 21st century, chart rules changed in many territories to allow downloads of old singles to re-enter the singles charts.Although it’s still very much a Slade record, it sees the band tackle a new, more mature sound, with Noddy singing rather than shouting his way through some surprisingly insightful lyrics.
