Finally, I cannot take ANY credit for putting any of this info together. The research on this was done several years ago by our own jimct. I just happened to remember that it was done, and I made sure to save a copy.

Thank you, Jim!!

Is there a reason I still can't find The Moody Blues "Steppin' In A Slide Zone" in the database? It reached #39 in 1978 (2 weeks) but is MIA when
I search for the band or the title.
Listen to The Lunar Laugh!

Yes, the reason is that many years ago, Pat used a chart average position to determine what gets included. For a 1978 hit, he might have used the average peak from Billboard, Cash Box, and Record World.

Several people have expressed interest in having all Billboard top 40 hits added to the database, and I do plan on making these updates.

If anyone has researched the 1950s, 1960s, and 1990s, please add that info here. I believe all Billboard top 40 hits in the last ~30 years are likely in the database, as there were no other publications used for averaging.
