Contents Notes on the text Introduction ....................................................................... 3 As with any book of this nature there are mistakes inside its pages. I The History Of The UK Album Chart ................................... 4 would be stupid to think that there were none. So, if you spot a mistake and let me know, I’ll correct it and you’ll get your name in the The Artist Section ............................................................. 10 book. Drop me an email at [email protected] and I’ll check Analysis Section .............................................................. 168 out the error, though I also welcome praise and criticism, both for the book and the layout of the book. Most Weeks On Chart .................................................. 168 Most Weeks On Chart By Disc In Total ......................... 172 Various publication errors, including incorrect positions, have been identified and corrected by reference to the original chart issues. Most Hits By Artist ....................................................... 173 Corrections to titles, label details and other information by reference The Number 1’s .............................................................. 174 to internet searchers and copies of the original records Album Title Listing ....................................................... 177 As far as can be tested this book is virus free, though it may contain The Artist Section - Version 2 ......................................... 381 traces of nuts. Selected Scans ................................................................ 474 I’d also like to thank my wife for encouragement in this project. This book is © Lonnie Readioff 2017, though the original charts that this book is derived from were first produced in Record Mirror (1956- 1958), Melody Maker (1958-1960) and Record Retailer (1960-1969). The book is presented on an as-is basis. While every effort has been made to make sure it is free from defects I will not be held responsible if it does nasty things to your computer. Though it shouldn’t. But if it does, it’s not my fault.
