British and American Hit Singles gives a definitive listing of the top 40 hits in both countries in the years 1940 to 1997. Titles are listed in alphabetical order by artist and these entries include the first dates of release. British and American Hit Singles also includes all million sellers since the early 1900s - sheet music as well as records. Information in each entry includes artist's date of birth and country of origin, backing vocalists/groups, million sellers identified, group members identified, numbers sold USA/UK, and chart position achieved. No other reference source is both so up-to-date and yet so detailed.

4.0 out of 5 stars
British and American Hit Singles,
By Michael Bainbridge (New Zealand) - See all my reviews
This review is from: British and American Hit Singles: 51 Years of Transatlantic Hits 1946-1997 (Paperback)
This book covers all the British top 75 and American top 45 singles charts, and as a reference book I found it very useful - Although this book is not as in depth as 'British Hit Singles/Every Single Hit Since 1952' by Jo Rice, Tim Rice and Paul Gambaccini. This book would have got five stars if it had included alphabetical listings of the song titles, as well as the band listings - this would make it much easier to find the artists to those lesser known songs. It also has the unusual quirk of listing the artist in the alphabetical listing by there first name which again makes it slightly harder to navigate. But even with these limitations I still recommend this book.
