828.0. "UK Top 40 List Required" by KIRKTN::BFJONES () Wed Apr 17 1991 09:47

    Does anyone have a file sitting somewhere with UK Top 40 singles since
    1960 ? ... a tall order I think ....

828.1Just an idea.DUCK::AYRESRThe ROCKThu Apr 18 1991 13:588
    
    NME always include the top 10 songs that were in the chart 5, 10, 15,
    20 and 25 years ago.  It might be worth dropping them a line to find
    out their sources.
    
    Just an idea...

    There's a "Fred Fact" page in the NME in which readers queries are
    answered. So like .1 says they may be able to point you in the right
    direction.

828.3If you still haven't found what your looking for?KURMA::ISUTHERLANDFri Apr 19 1991 01:257
    
    Your best bet is to invest in the Guiness Book of Hit Singles(around
    �7/�8).This lists all the records which made the top 75 since the chart
    was introduced.The latest one covers up to 1988(I think),but there
    should be a new one out this year,as they are re-vamped every couple of
    years.(this should cover up to 1990).
