Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Excellent reference book, listing every country single that charted between Jan. 1944 and Dec. 1997(all 16,693 of them).Includes highest chart position, date charted, weeks on chart and B-side of charted single.Also shows record label and number, along with peak position on the popcharts if the record was a crossover hit as well. Not much in the way ofartist bio info (only a couple of lines on even the biggest stars), but youprobably won't miss it.If you've only got one reference book coveringcountry music from the last 50 years, this should be the one. Look up anysong, any artist, settle any bet. Great Stuff.
