This is THE BEST book on the subject-Bar NONE!!!!!,
By Ralph DeMattia "A Lincoln Fan" (Fayetteville, Pennsylvania United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Billboard's Top Pop Albums 1955-2001 (Hardcover)
I first got this book in 1976 and have gotten it every time it's updated, and I have only two complaints about it; 1) it only gets updated every 3 to 5 years and 2) it's so damned expensive! But once you open it (and it feels like an LA Phone book), you forget the price and just OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH at how fact-filled and interesting it it! It practically tells you the last time your favorite artist picked his nose! It has EVERYTHING! I only with they would update it something like every two years. Get it, along with the Albums and Singles books, and you really don't need anything else. This book is THE B E S T !

This review is from: Billboard's Top Pop Albums 1955-2001 (Hardcover)
This is a wonderful, amazing book. But STOP as this obsolete version has been superceded by "Joel Whitburn Presents the Billboard Albums" which updates the book through Dec 31, 2005.

Cool,
By Jason (Glen Carbon, IL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Billboard's Top Pop Albums 1955-2001 (Hardcover)
I've been on Record Research's list for many years, and this was my very first Pop Albums book I purchased. It's got several amazing features. The best feature is that you can see which albums made the Pop Catalog albums chart. Although all of the artists do not have their complete discographies listed (only the albums that were charted on the Billboard Top 200 albums chart are in this book), and not much facts and trivia under albums, I still think this book deserves to be on music lovers shelves. I hope in the next edition they will show what current albums that can be found on vinyl.
