It now takes two volumes to cover the  complete research of every song and artist that ever hit Billboard magazine’s early pop singles, “Hot 100” and “Bubbling Under” charts since the dawn of the rock era.  Every song, whether it was a month-long chart-topper or hit #135 for a single week, is presented with our robust research.  These data-dense books present an objective history of mainstream music in an A-Z artist section, song title section, rankings, and more.
