The following is a list of every single that peaked on the Billboard Top 40 chart in 1969 (based on Joel Whitburn's Pop Annual 1955-1999 publication) and also includes the Top 40 hits Pat has included in the database based a composite of other music charts. Through extensive research (and the assistance of many, many posted contributions here on this message board from very helpful board members, especially my good friend Jim a.k.a. "jimct"), I've made my best efforts to determine whether the corresponding commercial 45 release for each single was issued in mono or stereo. This list only accounts for original 45 releases and not later re-issues.
I have posted a mono/stereo 45 list for each year from 1968-1975 (see links below) and hope forum members and fellow music collectors will find these lists to be a useful reference guide. I also highly encourage anyone to let me know if there are any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions so that I can make the necessary corrections.

Very impressive list, Todd! Just one thing that jumped out at me...The Charles Randolph Grean Sounde should be listed under "G" (Randolph was his middle name), also it's Sounde (with an "e" at the end).

Todd - Great job! Thanks for all the research you've done.
I do have a copy of the Moms Mabley song "Abraham, Martin And John" (Mercury 72935) and it is mono.

Thanks very much for the feedback and updates, gentlemen.
Does anyone have mono/stereo info for the remaining Top 40 singles on the list that still need mix notations?

Gary: is your stereo stock copy the same as the mono version, or the stereo
LP version?

My Monument vinyl stereo 45 is the same as the mono single (no crowd overdub at the beginning). It runs 3:06 and the dead wax shows H2W-2612-S. I bought it in Phoenix not long after the song dropped off the charts.

I too have the stereo stock 45 of Gitarzan. It utilizes the stamper from the stereo side of the mono/stereo promo 45 (of course, I've also had a promo 45 of the song where it was mono and had the regular B side on it).

Make it three votes for the stereo stock "Guitarzan" (although the B-side on my copy - "Bagpipes-That's My Bag" - is mono.)
----------
Here's another update:
Sherman, Bobby - "Little Woman" (mono and stereo)
I have two stock copies of "Little Woman": the common Columbia-pressed stereo stock with "One Too Many Mornings" on the B-side, and a Shelley Products-pressed mono stock copy. The mono pressing is a bit odd: the label copy, which uses the Columbia fonts (save for the star on the right side) lists the matrix number as ZTS-144418; however, the etched matrix number is ZTS-144763.
The Shelley pressing also has a different B-side: the Sherman-penned "Love," which has the same star on the label as the A-side. The label copy that remains unchanged from the A-side (artist name, production credits, "MMS-121") is still in the same Columbia fonts, but Shelley's own fonts were used for the changed info (the time, title, writer/publisher credit and matrix number.) The B-side's listed and etched matrix number is unique in its own way: "SPB". I suspect it stands for "Shelley Products B." This was probably an effort to rack up some songwriter royalties for the Sherman Bobby rather than the Dylan one.

Many thanks, Hykker!
And keep those updates coming, gang! There's now only a half dozen titles left without mono/stereo notations for 1969.

I have 2 45s of "Sunday Mornin'"; one mono, one stereo, and the stereo isn't marked as such.

Thanks, vanmeter.
Also, further research now seems to indicate that commercial 45 pressings of Kenny Rogers and the First Edition's "Reuben James" was issued in mono and stereo.

Todd, I currently don't own any "Don't Touch Me" 45, or a stock for "The
Beginning Of My End" (just a promo), but here are the other four 1969
stragglers:
-Booker T. & MG's-Mrs. Robinson: (mono; L & A 3:38)
-Isaac Hayes-By The Time I Get To Phoenix: (mono; L 6:45; A 6:46)
-The Way It Used To Be: (mono; L & A 3:09)
-Vogues-No, Not Much (mono; L 2:45; A 3:19)
As for '68, my stock 45 of "Cycles" is currently mis-filed, and I currently
only own a reprint 45 for "Brown Eyed Woman", so I'll just wait for your '71
stragglers, kind sir.
