The original data was compiled form reference to the original weekly magazines and corrected using internet resources, such as Discogs for durations and composers and, in some cases, iTunes. The book is presented on an as-is basis. While every effort has been made to make sure it is free from defects I will not be held responsible if it does nasty things to your computer. Though it shouldn’t. But if it does, it’s not my fault.

Notes on the text As with any book of this nature there are mistakes inside its pages. I would be stupid to think that there were none. So, if you spot a mistake and let me know, I’ll correct it and you’ll get your name in the book. Drop me an email at [email protected] and I’ll check out the error, though I also welcome praise and criticism, both for the book and the layout of the book. As far as can be tested this book is virus free, though it may contain traces of nuts.

Introduction On November 1st 1884 Billboard Advertising began publication, focusing on advertising and bill posting - hence the name, which dropped the ‘Advertising’ part in 1897 and in 1900 the magazine went weekly. Moving with the times Billboard added sections for outdoor entertainment such as fairs, carnivals, circuses, vaudeville, and burlesque shows, together with a Routes Ahead section tracking the location of entertainers. Billboards music sections began in 1899 when they began to cover coin-operated entertainment machines, creating a dedicated section for them called "Amusement Machines" in March 1932. Billboard published the first music hit parade on January 4, 1936 and introduced a "Record Buying Guide" in January 1939. In 1940, where this book begins, it introduced "Chart Line", which tracked the best-selling records, and this was followed by a chart for jukebox records in 1944 called Music Box Machine charts. By the 1940s, Billboard was more of a music industry specialist publication with the number of charts growing from 8 (1987) to 28 across multiple formats and genre as in 1994. On 27 July 1940, Billboard launched a single page featuring “Records Most Popular On Music Machines” (in two sections called Going Strong and Coming Up) “National and Regional List Of Sheet Music Best Sellers”, “List Of Songs With Most Radio Plugs” (an early Airplay chart) and a new section not previously featured called “National and Regional List Of Best Selling Retail Records”. This new section listed, as the paper printed above the Top 10 charts, “This compilation is based upon reports from the following retail stores of their 10 best selling records of the past week”. Billboard then listed all the shops providing the sales information. The Top 10 charts where shown for four regions of the USA, East, South, Midwest and West Coast, together with a single National listing. The format remained unchanged till 8 January 1944 when more charts where added and the charts gained their own multi-page section. Billboard never looked back. The Best Sellers In Stores chart has changed size multiple times over the years before, in 1958, coming to an end. It was still printed alongside the brand new Hot 100 until October, when a final shake up of the charts the paper provided (final for 1958 anyway) set the tone for the years to come with a single Hot 100 combining radio plays and sales, together with charts for Country Music, R&B music and Albums. The last issue to feature this sales only chart was 13 October 1958, two months after the Hot 100 began. The next sales only chart would appear in 1984. This book lists specifically the Billboard Best Sellers In Stores chart, covering every week a chart was published and listing the peaks, weeks and showing all re-entries based on this chart. All composers and B-Sides are shown, together with duration, for the first time in one easy to read volume. The durations are taken from reference to the original records, or internet sources if that fails. Discogs, 45worlds, iTunes and wikipedia have been most helpful in this regard.

Chart Milestones Billboard printed this chart weekly from 1940 to 1958 and so, with the exception of size changes, little happens to disrupt the flow of the chart. Key milestones are mentioned below.

1940 27 Jul The first chart, a Top 10, called "Best Selling Retail Records'.

1941 3 May Top 9 this week only. The chart reverts to a Top 10 the following week.

1944 17 Jun Top 15 this week only. The chart reverts to a Top 10 the following week. 1 Jul Top 17 this week only. The chart reverts to a Top 10 the following week.

1945 20 Jan From now on ties become common and the chart could list many more records than

the actual size of the chart. For example on 14 April 1945 17 records are listed in a Top 10.

24 Mar Chart changes name to "Best-Selling Popular Retail Records"

1947 15 Nov Chart expands to a Top 15, although this week 22 records are listed due to ties.

listed as 6-7-7-9-10. Up to this point ties where listed as 6-7-7-8-9-10. 5 Jun Top 25 this week only. 12 Jun Chart expands to a Top 30.

1949 8 Oct Chart changes name to "Best-Selling Pop Singles"
