This is a Les Cokell and Ian Wilmot chart from 1984. It was published in the Mancunian Gay - a gay man's magazine edited and published independently in Manchester.
Les Cokell was a hero of the hi-NRG scene, and a leading light at Hero's off John Dalton Street. Prior to this era he was a celebrated Northern Soul DJ.
As well as these regular charts for Mancunian Gay, I believe Les also wrote a column called Castro Connection for Disco Mix Mag, an earlier name for Mixmag. Would like to track these down!
Archives+ in Central Library, Manchester hold many copies of the Mancunian Gay, which is where I found this.
