Paul, I know "Top Pop Singles" is being broken into 2 volumes, by date. But is there anything in the new '55-'89 book that we don't already have in previous Top Pop Singles book? Obviously, the '90-'21 book will be of interest to many because it has so many new years since the last one. Also, when is that 2nd volume coming out?

You can lock me in as getting both volumes. Will they be available as E-Books too Paul?
If an Artist that appears in the 1955-1989 overlaps and is in the 1990-2021 will there be a reference in that artist pointing back to the first book for the 1973-1989 charters? (Think Aerosmith for example). Any chance you are getting the 1955-2021 annual out next year too? Usually I notice you update about once every 6 years! Just a suggestion for the next Pop Annual book...it would be cool to have a listing under each year from 1955-2021 of all the hits that didn't chart on the Hot 100 or bubbling that come from the yearbooks Whitburn did from 1983-2006. That way it gives a great picture of hits that didnt get on either chart but were clearly hits of that year on others (rap, country, R & B etc)..... |

Favorite two expressions to live by on this board: "You can't download vinyl" and "Not everything is available on CD."

Paul, I’ve never noticed the 24-hit club before. Any significance to that
number? Was an important artist on the edge? |

I see that Aaron beat me to the new features (thanks, Aaron!).
I'm thinking that the Pop Annual may come next year (2022), but don't quote me on that. The 24 Hit Club has been around for a few editions now. No huge significance to that number, just one that Joel thought sounded good. Please keep in mind that it's basically just me and Joel working on these books nowadays. I wish we could pump out more product, but there's only so many hours in the day. This one alone took me a month just to edit the artist section! |

I just bought the 1955-2018 book a year or so ago, so
I'll probably pass on this but curiously how will songs that spanned 1989-90 be handled? Both books or just the one that saw the majority of chart action? |

I was wondering about that as well. I imagine it would be easier to just go by whichever year the song reached its peak position? For instance, Michael Bolton's "How Am I Supposed To Live Without You" went to #1 in January 1990, but had already been on the chart for several weeks at the end of 1989. So maybe it would be easier to just put it in the 1990-2021 book with its debut date in 1989 listed with a "+" sign to show that it peaked in 1990? |
