For the first time, this books tells the full story of how Britain’s record charts leapt beyond the pages of the music press to become a hot weekly topic in millions of homes. Stop Press Hits reveals, year-by-year, which of the competing charts was most widely seen; uncovers lost details of the Beatles’ all-conquering chart performance; and tells how Radio Luxembourg’s Top 20 show became fastest on the air with the latest hits. Fully illustrated, with special sections on the UK music papers - NME, Melody Maker, Record Mirror and Disc - and a complete list of all the Number Ones in the exclusive charts compiled for the UK’s biggest-selling Sunday papers.This is a landmark reference for all chart enthusiasts - and a vivid chronicle of a golden era in pop music, reported as it happened.
