About the Book
Top Pop Singles Explodes Its Boundaries
The complete chart history of Billboard's Hot 100 and early pop singles charts is too huge for one book! It will now be contained in 2 separate books. Volume 1, spanning 1955 through 1989, will be arriving late September, 2021.
By focusing on the vinyl record era, Joel was able to add a host of new and exciting features to Top Pop Singles, such as all Top 10 albums, a 15-page section titled "The Pre-Rock Era," prices of valuable vintage vinyl, over 1,200 photos, all Canadian #1 hits, all #1 Honor Roll Of Hits, revised artist rankings, and so much more!
