# Chartbusters Go Pop

Chartbusters Go Pop (subtitled 20 Legendary Covers from 1969/70 as sung by Elton John) is a compilation album of cover versions by Elton John.
These recordings are from the days prior to Elton John's success as a solo performer. They are taken from a variety of periodically issued budget-priced compilations of hit songs, under brand names including Top of the Pops, Chartbusters and Hot Hits. These were issued by budget labels including Music for Pleasure and featured current or recent hits re-recorded, with varying degrees of note-for-note accuracy, by nameless "soundalike" performers. Like many other jobbing session singers of the time, John worked as a vocalist on these albums.
These covers compilations were cheaply recorded, cheaply priced, and sold in large quantities until, in 1972, compilations featuring the original artists were introduced by such labels as K-Tel. The public preferred the original recordings and the market for cheap cover compilations rapidly declined. This album collects together John's contributions to a variety of covers albums issued during 1969 and 1970. This collection was released by minor labels in the UK and US in 1994 and was re-issued many times afterwards.

They were constructed between the late 18th and late 19th century, the most common building type being a "Cape Cod type," a frame dwelling of one and one half stories sheathed in shingles or clapboard.

# Guido Romanelli

Guido Romanelli (Siena, 1876 – S. Vito al Tagliamento, 1973) was an Italian army officer.
At the end of the First World War, Colonel Guido Romanelli became chef of the Italian Military Mission to Hungary from May to November 1919. At this time he was the only official representative of the Entente in Budapest and he intervened forcefully against the reprisals of the revolutionary government of Béla Kun, intervening to save the lives of cadets of the military academy of Ludovika who rebelled against the Bolshevik regime.
His activities brought him the recognition and devotion of the Hungarian people. Following advance of the Romanian forces toward the Hungarian capital, Romanelli guaranteed and managed the escape from the country of some of the major leaders of the regime and their families, acting as mediator between the foreign occupying forces and the new Government after the occupation of Budapest. For his activities, in 1922 he was awarded with the Hungarian Decoration of the Sword of Honour. In subsequent years, Romanelli served as Consul of Italy in Spain and President of the Italian-Hungarian Commercial Bank.

# Alabama Nunatak

Alabama Nunatak is a nunatak in the King Frederik VIII Land area of northeastern Greenland. Administratively it is part of the Northeast Greenland National Park zone.

## History

This nunatak was named by Ejnar Mikkelsen after his ship during the 1909-12 Alabama Expedition. Mikkelsen and Iver Iversen went up the Storstrommen to reach the head of the Danmark Fjord, leaving this nunatak on the left in their arduous dogsled journey over the ice.
Few details are known about the circumstances of sighting and mapping of this nunatak, because Mikkelsen's diary, which had been kept in a cache at a rocky islet in Skaer Fjord, was destroyed by a polar bear.

## Geography

The Alabama Nunatak is located just north of the Ymer Nunatak, the northernmost spur of the Queen Louise Land group, and south of the Bildsoe Nunatak. It rises at the southwest end of Duke of Orleans Land, west of the area where the Storstrommen begins to flow southwards.

After playing in his early years with former denominations of Málaga CF he went on to represent Real Balompédica Linense, Real Zaragoza (with a stint in its B team), Real Valladolid, Hércules CF and C.D.

# Lace Market Theatre

The Lace Market Theatre is a small, independent amateur theatre in the Lace Market area of Nottingham city centre.

## History
### Origins: 1920s to 1951

The Lace Market Theatre developed from two amateur dramatic societies founded in Nottingham in the 1920s: the Nottingham Playgoers Club (1922) and the Nottingham Philodramatic Society (1926). These societies amalgamated in 1946 to become the Nottingham Theatre Club, which was based at the Nottingham Bluecoat School until 1951.

### Hutchison Street: 1951 to 1972

In 1951, the Nottingham Theatre Club moved to leased premises in Hutchinson Street, much closer to Nottingham city centre. It remained there until 1972, when it left as part of the major slum clearance and redevelopment of the city during that decade. At this point, members raised the money to purchase a dilapidated paint store in Halifax Place in the Lace Market area of the city.

### Halifax Place: 1972 to date

The paint store was originally built as a chapel in 1761. It later became a school, where William Booth (founder of the Salvation Army) was a pupil. The building is now Grade II-listed.
Tight funds meant the majority of renovation works were carried out by the Club’s members themselves. The result, achieved within a year, was a 118-seat auditorium with space in the upstairs bar for studio performances to smaller audiences. The Club's objective (which remains to this day) was to stage plays that were challenging for the actors and technical crews, and which people would otherwise have had to travel to London to see.
'Training by doing' has always been a part of the Club’s ethos. Small-scale productions were regularly staged in the bar area so that first-time directors could cut their teeth. These productions were known as ‘Fents’ — an homage to the textile-making history of the Lace Market area.
In 1977, the opportunity arose for the Club to acquire more land. To facilitate the raising of funds, the Lace Market Theatre Trust Ltd was formed. £40,000 was initially raised for a three-storey extension at the rear of the building; and a further £40,000 was raised for its completion in 1984. The building was owned by the Trust and leased to the Club.
While the Club continued to stage challenging pieces, the Trust pursued charitable and educational aims by giving grants to students who were going on to study at drama school.
By 2000, the Club’s wardrobe had moved into rented premises, firstly in St. Mary's Gate and then Stoney Street. In 2003, the Club merged into the Trust, a registered charity.

## Patrons

Shortly after the completion of the extension in 1984, Prunella Scales and Timothy West became patrons of the theatre. In 2012, Matthew Macfadyen and Keeley Hawes also became patrons. Joyce Redman was a patron for many years until her death in 2012.

## Links with German theatres

The Lace Market Theatre has been twinned with the Jakobus Theatre and Die Kaeuze in Germany since 1982.
