50th anniversary of the "Alarmschijf" (featuring Luv' and José)



On November 1st, 1969, the first "Alarmschijf" (record of the week or hit tip) was announced on the legendary Dutch station "Radio Veronica" which broadcast the Dutch Top 40. When a single is chosen as an "Alarmschijf", it is more played on the radio. The aim is to make it a hit record. Nowadays the Alarmschijf is played on Qmusic.

Three Luv' tracks were Alarmschijven:
