Joe Whitburn's Billboard Top Pop Singles 1955-2006 11th Edition (Joel Whitburn's Top Pop Singles (Cumulative)) 11 reviews
WHITBURN J
RECORD RESEARCH, 2008
Better than ever
I love the new "Classics" section -- how could so many famous and loved songs not be Top 100 hits? Separating the "featured artist" from the artist's main body of work was also a good idea. And the information on which greatest hits compilation has the most hit songs on it has already helped me get the most for my money. If you love music, this will help you put it in order so you can find what ...

Joel Whitburn Presents The Billboard Hot 100 Annual: 7th Edition - 1955-20051 review
Record Research, 2007
Billboard Top 100 Annual
This book was great and an improvement from the version that I purchased in 1978. Some of the yearly rankings changed, but other than that, there is more information in this version. I am waiting for my copy of Joel Whitburn Presents Billboard Top Pop Singles 1955-2006 to update my older version as well.

Joel Whitburn Presents The Billboard Albums (Billboard Albums: Includes Every Album That Made the Billboard)4 reviews
Record Research, 2007
indispensable for the chart fanatic
In this update of the 2002 volume, Joel Whitburn has not messed with what was already pretty much a perfect compendium of all things related to the Billboard Top 200 album charts. The layout of the book remains much the same which means that information is extremely easy to find, with artist lists of every album that made the Top 200, every song contained on those albums and where they got to on ...

Long waited edition
"Book Of Top 40 Country Hits 2006" is a long waited edition for my old one from 1996.
I have used the old one very much as "a bibel in country music" in my weekly local radio show.
I'm sure that the new edition will be used in the same way.
When I'm saying this, I will not leave the oppotunity to mension, that
Joel Whitburn's "Top Country Singles" 2002, 5th. edition have been used in the same ...

Typical Whitburn
This book typifies what you'd expect from Joel Whitburn if you are looking for serious information that you can rely on. All the information you need about a single is here just as in his country and rock editions. This is the book you need to complete the trilogy.

Joel Whitburn's Top Country Singles
I have been using a number of different Joel Whitburn books for many years and have found nothing that even comes close to the quality of his books. They are the perfect referrence work for the music industry. You can't ever go wrong with any book by Joel Whitburn. Other Joel Whitburn books I own: Top Pop Singles, Top Pop Singles Annual, Pop Memories or any of his other books are all excellent ...

39 and holding?
If you are considering this book, you are probably 39 and holding, like I have been for the past 25 years. I started wondering "what was the title of that song?" and "who sang that one?". All those good tunes I grew up listening to in the late 50's on through the 80's. I bought this book (through Amizon of course) and just seeing the titles printed jarred loose melodies that have long been ...

Amazing and full of information
I was wating for years for this book to be released, and finally I got it. The information is complete and detailed about the songs/tracks that were listed on the dance charts. You can find the date that the song was first entered on the lists and the peak positions. You'd be amazed that many of the dance hits that peaked # 1 on the 100 pop chart did not make the # 1 on the dance/club play ...

This is definitely a "back in the day" compilation
I highly recommend this book to any fan of the music genres charted in Billboard's R&B Top 40. If you grew up on music like this, it's perfect for review during the years when you were in school--no matter if it was back in the 40s, 60s, 90s or 00s. You'll be surprised of all the music you have forgotten, you'll then find yourself looking for it to bring back fond memories.
If, like me, ...

Pop Memories 1890-1954: The History of American Popular Music10 reviews
Joel Whitburn
Record Research Inc., 1991
If you're interested in pre-Elvis music, this helps a lot
Music charts never tell the whole story as anybody who has followed pop charts of any era will know. They serve as an approximate guide to what music was fashionable at the time. It is particularly important to note that the economic depression of the thirties meant that a lot of singers chose to do radio broadcasts rather than make a lot of records which few could afford. This explains why ...

Make a list and check it twice...
Billboard, long the Bible of pop music opens the doors to their kingdom of charts. It's all here folks. The hits rise and fall faster than the stock exchange. You'll see great songs that barely made the top 100, and sappy tunes that were pushed up the charts by heavy pushes by the record companies. Find out for yourself how many songs never made it past the #2 position because they had the ...

Music lovers -- get this book!
Indispensable reference!
Unfortunately, many "Music of Your Life" stations have left the radio. However, the Golden Age of music is alive in Joel Whitburn's books. Many of these songs will live forever. For example, my 4 year old daughter really likes Nat "King" Cole. With this book, it's easy to see Nat's other hits.
A lot of people are introduced to this type of music from today's movies. ...
