  • "It ain't #1 til it's #1 in Billboard."

    I've been a radio DJ for 55+ years. Of all the surveys and charts for records and artists through the years, this is the only one that counts. Joel Whitburn has created the Bible of record research, using Billboard Magazine statistics. No radio station or individual who considers themselves in the know about music must have this research tool. There's a reason the broadcast industry says "It ain't #1 til it's #1 in Billboard."

  • Good reference book

    This is a good book for reference. It gives you excellent data about all of the best songs and artists of the rock era. I particularly like the date range of this edition due to this being a snapshot of the music scene up to just before the internet really changed the charts dramatically.
