I have been using this book for 25 years or more for reference on top 40 records. Being a DJ for years helped and just putting together classic cd collections by using this book helps me keep all my records;cds and LPs in correct order because of the years and the dates I list. You can find what records made the top 40 from 1955 all the way up to 2009. Now after 2000 you have a lot of rap and hip hop records if you are into that or if the files your looking for are from the 60s 70s 80s or the 50s this book is for you. I swear by it.Why have I bought 3 versions before this one...I wore them out.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. I purchased this one to enjoy in my leisure timeBy Randall L. TurnerThis book was a vital source of information when I was in the radio business. Ive worn out two copies over the past twenty-plus years and am now on my third copy. Being a music lover with an appetite for knowledge of Top 40 chart history; I purchased this one to enjoy in my leisure time.Thanks to Joel Whitburn and his staff for their diligence in compiling the chart information in this book. There are many variations of Billboard chart info books in print; but this is the most valuable and basic reference source available. It contains the info you need and the layout makes it easy to use. If youre into music research or just hungry for personal info about your favorite songs; this is the book you want. There has been a copy of this book in every radio control room Ive ever stepped into. I honestly dont know what I would have done without this book and the valuable information it contains.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. If You Love Top 40 Music This Book Is A MUST!By CGIf youre a fan of Pop Music btwn 1955-2009 this is one of the BEST books ever to buy for yourself or as a gift. Youll hear a song on the radio you havent heard in a long while; will open the book to find out where it charted and will find yourself 30 minutes later leafing through it looking up songs/bands you love. Its mind-blowing. Discovering that The Who only ever peaked at #9 while other one hit wonders only charted in the Top 40 once and peaked at #1? Its awesome. I own this book and have given it as a gift to a bunch of people and its always a BIG hit. Ive read that this Vol. (Vol. 9) is the last one to be printed. I also own Vol. 8 and thats just as great. Grab one of these (all of the ones Ive purchased I bought used through ) before they become even harder/more expensive to find. Theyre definitely worth it!
