The Pasadenas
The Pasadenas were an English R&B/pop group. They had two UK top 10 albums and eight UK top 40 hit singles, including "Tribute (Right On)" (1988), "Riding on a Train" (1988) and "I'm Doing Fine Now" (1992). Career The group scored a UK number five hit, and topped the charts in the Netherlands in 1988 with their initial release, "Tribute (Right On)", which paid homage to soul musicians Diana Ross & the Supremes and Aretha Franklin. Their second single "Riding on a Train" would peak at number 13 in the UK singles chart. Both singles were taken from their debut album '' To Whom It May Concern'', released in October 1988, an album which would peak at number 3 in the United Kingdom and which would go on to sell more than one million copies. In addition to the two top 20 singles, the album included "Enchaned Lady" (a small UK top 40 hit) and a cover version of the Chi-Lites' "Living in the Footsteps of Another Man".

The Pasadenas Songs
''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things that are already or about to be mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with nouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers. Pronunciation In most dialects, "the" is pronounced as (with the voiced dental fricative followed by a schwa) when followed by a consonant sound, and as (homophone of the archaic p ...

It is a national look over of club disc jockeys to determine the most popular songs being played in nightclubs across the country.

Hot Black Singles
The Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart ranks the most popular R&B and hip hop songs in the United States and is published weekly by ''Billboard''. Rankings are based on a measure of radio airplay, sales data, and streaming activity. The chart had 100 positions but was shortened to 50 positions in October 2012. The chart is used to track the success of popular music songs in urban, or primarily African American, venues. Dominated over the years at various times by jazz, rhythm and blues, doo-wop, rock and roll, soul, and funk, it is today dominated by contemporary R&B and hip hop. Since its inception, the chart has changed its name many times in order to accurately reflect the industry at the time. History Beginning in 1942, ''Billboard'' published a chart of bestselling black music, first as the Harlem Hit Parade, then as Race Records. Then in 1949, ''Billboard'' began publishing a Rhythm and Blues chart, which entered "R&B" into mainstream lexicon. These three charts were consolida ...

Billboard Hot 100
The ''Billboard'' Hot 100 is the music industry standard record chart in the United States for songs, published weekly by ''Billboard'' magazine. Chart rankings are based on sales (physical and digital), radio play, and online streaming in the United States.

A new chart is compiled and officially released to the public by ''Billboard'' on Tuesdays but post-dated to the following Saturday.

To Whom It May Concern (The Pasadenas Album)
''To Whom It May Concern'' is the debut album by the British R&B/pop group the Pasadenas, released in 1988. The album contains three UK top 40 hits: " Tribute (Right On)" (No. 5), "Riding on a Train" (No. 13), and "Enchanted Lady" (No. 31). "Tribute (Right On)" also reached No. 52 on the US ''Billboard'' Hot 100. Critical reception ''Spin'' called the album "less tightly footnoted than the Fine Young Cannibals, but also less charismatic." ''The Washington Post'' wrote: "A smooth, pleasant but not especially involving pop-soul platter, this is zipless funk, airbrushed for maximum crossover potential. As with much Britsoul, this is less soul music than it is music about soul music." ''The New York Times'' wrote that it "harks back to ultrasmooth vocal-harmony groups of the 70's like the Spinners and Earth, Wind and Fire, but lacks memorable melodies." Track listing Personnel *The Pasadenas (Andrew Banfield, Aaron Brown, David Milliner, Michael Milliner, Hamish Seelochan) – ...
