| Notes | The first-ever Record Research book "that is entirely outside the covers of Billboard magazine", this book contains research from the Pop Singles charts of Music Vendor (which became Record World) magazines from October 4, 1954 to April 10, 1982. The Pop Singles chart was a Top 100 chart from 1958 to its final issue in 1982. Even from its first issue in 1954 to mid-1958, the Pop chart contained more positions than any Billboard Pop chart. As a result, several singles and artists that did not appear in Top Pop Singles are listed in this book. Shown in the basic Record Research format. |
