Thanks, Jim. I've already submitted 1968 and 1969 to Pat and will probably begin work on 1967 tomorrow.

Now that I hit upon the idea of using Whitburn's "Pop Annual" to type out all the Motown and associated labels' top 40 hits for each year, instead of looking up every single song in the database to see if it's listed, it actually only takes about an hour per set.]]> Thu, 21 Aug 2008 16:37:46 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4062&PID=18335&title=hipo-select#18335 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4062&PID=18332&title=hipo-select#18332 Author: jimct

Well, Jim, I'm starting with Vol. 10 and working back, so maybe you could start with Vol. 2 and work forward...]]> Sun, 17 Aug 2008 10:51:32 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4062&PID=18256&title=hipo-select#18256 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4062&PID=18252&title=hipo-select#18252 Author: jimct

Pat, I already own just about every Top 40 hit on the Motown family of labels from the era in question on a commercial 45, as well as also owning all 10 volumes of the Motown Singles Box so far, and I would also be more than willing to help you. This same statement is also true for the five 2-CD chronological, comprehensive James Brown sets released so far on Hip-O Select. But since you have at least two other volunteers already, just let me know where you'd like me to start, so we can avoid duplication of effort.]]> Sat, 16 Aug 2008 12:48:17 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4062&PID=18252&title=hipo-select#18252 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4062&PID=18194&title=hipo-select#18194 Author: Moderator

I already have a volunteer working on Volume 1 so that should fit well with your plan Brian!]]> Thu, 14 Aug 2008 08:11:24 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4062&PID=18194&title=hipo-select#18194 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4062&PID=18191&title=hipo-select#18191 Author: Brian W.

Since I have all but Vol. 1, I'll volunteer. But give me a couple weeks. I'll probably send it to you year by year, Pat.

The caveat is: I don't have most of the original 45s to compare them to. All I can do is assume they are all the 45 versions, with the two or three mistakes that I've read about on other bulletin boards like the Steve Hoffman forums.]]> Wed, 13 Aug 2008 22:31:19 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4062&PID=18191&title=hipo-select#18191 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4062&PID=18164&title=hipo-select#18164 Author: Pat Downey

Sure, I have no objection to including the Complete Motown Singles series in the database if anyone wishes to pass along the relevant information!]]> Wed, 13 Aug 2008 05:54:57 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4062&PID=18164&title=hipo-select#18164 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4062&PID=18134&title=hipo-select#18134 Author: Brian W.

That thought has crossed my mind before, too, Pat -- the possibility of your having occasional "guest reviewers."

Another thought, too, Pat: It's understandable that you wouldn't want to spend $1320 for a CD series, so if there are people on this board who have these CDs and whom you trust give reliable info as to the length of the song, etc., then these people can supply you the info for the database.]]> Tue, 12 Aug 2008 09:34:37 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4062&PID=18128&title=hipo-select#18128
