Pop Hits Singles and Albums is four big books in one covering the wonderful era of big bands, classic crooners, classy female vocalists and smooth vocal groups. The first section is an artist-by-artist anthology of classic pop songs with complete chart data and now shows every record's B-side. Following is a year-by-year ranking of all the hits which includes each song's songwriter(s). For the first time ever are the Top 10 charts for every week from 1940-54. And finally, the complete story of the early pop albums chart is told artist-by-artist - showing all chart data and every track from every album!

5.0 out of 5 stars Music lovers -- get this book!, July 31, 2004
Indispensable reference!
Unfortunately, many "Music of Your Life" stations have left the radio. However, the Golden Age of music is alive in Joel Whitburn's books. Many of these songs will live forever. For example, my 4 year old daughter really likes Nat "King" Cole. With this book, it's easy to see Nat's other hits.
A lot of people are introduced to this type of music from today's movies. They don't realize the songs are from the 1940's- 1954's. With this book, it's easy to find the song, it's easy fo find the artist.
Lookup that favorite song, lookup that favorite artist.
I recommend this book highly!
