Pop singles is only 1200 pages but the albums book includes
a listing of all the songs on each album. Back then, that
info was not as available as it is today. Both books are
about the same thickness.

The Top Pop Albums book is about 1/8” thinner than the 1955-2018 Top Pop
Singles book. The pages in the albums book are much thinner - it’s quite
noticeable! That’s how 1600 pages can be thinner than 1200 pages.

I have both books. The albums book is 1/8” larger than the Top Pop Singles
Volume. 1 1955-1989. The pages in the latter are twice as thick!! 852 pages
almost equals 1602. You have to be careful when reading the albums book
because the pages are flimsy. That’s how they kept the size down.

Per the preface, the book contains 1970-1985 bubblers.

I would buy one while you can.

Chartman, did you mean to say that the Pop Annual is the stepsister of Top Pop Singles? I like the "stepsister" part.

I just read in the Canadian chart books thread that Amazon
offers a print-on-demand service.

Hint, hint - Record Research!
