The Retroscope: 15 March

March 15 1980: Queen's "Crazy little thing called love" reached the #1 position in the US.
March 15 1984: The release of the first issue of the A-Team comic book series. Each issue of the mini-series was a stand alone story yet the quality varied, however, there was consistency in the art demonstrating some quality character movements from B.A.Baracus. A pity that Marvel Comics did not capitalize on the TV series success though - and, you guessed it, this was not available in South Africa for obvious reasons!
March 15 1986: Starship scored another number one hit with "Sara"
