Comments and Reviews


Railmaster London 9th Mar 2019		How much of this was incorporated into Guiness Hit Records, which draws on the same underlying information ?



ppint. 6th Mar 2019		for at least a while, this p/b was distributed by, and listed on the futura publications catalogue/ stock list/order form, indicated as being a queen anne press title. there may have been no other link between the two. . .



JPGR&B SUBS 18th Jan 2019		With acknowledgement to original contributor Problem Child, I have added better images of the front and back covers, and have included an image of the title page.



Problem Child 17th Nov 2015		Again, sorry my fault re-wrong date. I saw the date I bought it that I had written on inside and mistook the '6' for a '5'. But can't be sure how long it had been on sale for by the time I got it.



KeithS SUBS 17th Nov 2015		Print review shows where the 1975 date came from but First Published is clearly 1976



TopPopper 16th Nov 2015		We can change the date - do we know the month in 1976? Incidentally, it's good if you can, to include a scan of the printing history page, which is usually next to or just after the inside title page. It helps clarify any uncertainties like this.



Problem Child 16th Nov 2015		Hi My Friend Jack, I think you are right there. I've just looked at my copy again and in my quickly written handwriting I now see that I bought it on the 19th November 1976... not '75. Sorry for the miss-information. (that's why I always wrote the dates on anything I bought ...!)



My Friend Jack SUBS 15th Nov 2015		I'm almost certain this didn't come out until 1976. The fact that it covers the charts up to October '75 would suggest a publication date of '76. Plus, I remember where I was working when I got my copy. I couldn't wait until lunchtime so I disappeared from the office for a few minutes, having placed an order several weeks earlier.



JPGR&B SUBS 14th Nov 2015		I've got a copy of the paperback in much better condition. I'll upload scans when I find it!



My Friend Jack SUBS 14th Nov 2015		There was a hardback edition at some point, with a black and silver cover. I think my ex-wife still has my copy!



neil86 13th Nov 2015		Yes, a 2nd edition came out in 1979 which I have. It was published by Futura Publications Limited and covers 1955-1979. Unfortunately my copy is stained so I will hang on until someone scans a clean copy. It is a fantastic little reference book.



KeithS SUBS 13th Nov 2015		I bought this very book in Iran in 1977...it was very cheap



Problem Child 13th Nov 2015		Images up-loaded of the first book of the UK top 20 charts. 208 pages give the top 20 data each week until the book was ready to go to print in October '75. 3 inside page images above give an idea of the books contents. This was an amazing book for me with all the info it contained and the way it was laid out. I impressed/bored everyone I knew with the fact I could recite a top 20 from any given year... happy daze. I have an idea that a 2nd Edition appeared in about 1978, which I didn't buy but the next one from 1984 and is the 2nd Edition.
