Sorry if I sounded accusatory. It was not my intention. I honestly thought it might be Cash Box that was doing it, not Record Research. I was just wondering if they did it because the book was coming out.

And you're right. The archive is back up. Yesterday, though, it had a been notice that the IP address had been suspended.]]> Sat, 27 Jun 2015 12:09:40 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8367&PID=43929&title=cash-box-top-100-charts-1970s#43929 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8367&PID=43928&title=cash-box-top-100-charts-1970s#43928 Author: Paul Haney

No, it does not. BTW, I don't think the Cash Box chart archive has been suspended (I'm still able to access it this morning).]]> Sat, 27 Jun 2015 06:05:21 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8367&PID=43928&title=cash-box-top-100-charts-1970s#43928 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8367&PID=43921&title=cash-box-top-100-charts-1970s#43921 Author: JMD1961

I got mine last week. Please do the '80s next! (If possible, maybe even put in the little bit of the '90s since they didn't make it through the decade!)

Something I always noticed looking at old charts in print and online, is, despite the fact they were competing magazines, how similar they were in how the charts were run.

Examples: a song had to debut at No. 90 or higher before it got a bullet (or star); for many years, if a song had a bullet it wouldn't fall the next week (this rule was changed in Billboard in 1983 and in Cashbox a few years later); how no song debuted in the No. 100 position (in Billboard from 1977 to 1988; in Cashbox from somewhere around 1980 right to the end); how most songs falling down the chart would drop into the 90s the week before falling off.

There are others, but could it just be a co-incidence that each of the chart directors set them up that way?
