| 10 | ALL STAR - Smash Mouth |
Maxwell missed his scheduled UK release, but still moves up one place, and misses the top 40 by just one place. Jordan Knight is also up one. No news on those tracks, nor a release date for Sarah. Smash Mouth expect an August date. Of the others, only A1 has any hope of making the main chart next month. Aerosmith's track has already seen some action in December 97.
