Mike Stock is revisiting his Stock Aitken Waterman heyday to compile a new fan-voted Ultimate Albums Chart.
Earlier this year, the producer called on fans to submit their favourite tracks from the trio, and aired the Top 40 across four on-demand shows.
And with Donna Summer’s This Time I Know It’s For Real topping the countdown, Mike now wants to uncover fans’ favourite album from the music legends.
“After the success of the Ultimate Stock Aitken Waterman song, let’s do another,” tweeted the Mike Stock Music HQ Twitter account.

“Send us your top 10 SAW related albums (in order of preference) to paul@mikestockmusic.com and we will compile the ultimate SAW album chart.”
The chart is open to fans globally, who are asked to send their Top 10 picks of albums featuring tracks produced by Stock Aitken Waterman.
According to organisers, any album featuring tracks from the trio is valid for entry, and albums don’t have to be produced entirely by Stock Aitken Waterman.
Send your top picks to paul@mikestockmusic.com.
Fans can catch up on the full series over on ambo.tv, with Mike telling Retro Pop he was surprised by the outcome of the original singles rundown.
“There are quite a few surprising ones… that didn’t perhaps get the attention in the day,” said Mike. “And all of that is to do with promotion, and the fame or popularity of any one artist at any moment in time. But the fans have just stuck with their favourites, and that seems to be the constant.
“Beyond Your Wildest Dreams [by Lonnie Gordon] is one of those songs, and there are others. Even some of the Kylie B-sides that didn’t get much of a look-in, the fans just go, ‘Oh, I really love that one.’
“So for me, it’s, it’s wonderful. I mean, some of the ones we throw away or thought we’ve thrown away, come back and they love it.”
