The "Billboard" Book of Top 40 Country Hits by Joel Whitburn

The "Billboard" Book of Top 40 Country Hits by Joel Whitburn

From the classic days of Red Foley, Patsy Cline and Johnny Cash to the country super-stars of today like the Dixie Chicks and Toby Keith, "Billboard" magazine has been keeping tabs on the best-sellers in country music and today, country music is hotter than ever before. Now, all the information since the earliest Billboard charts - compiled in 1942 - has been gathered into one essential reference: "The Billboard Book of Top 40 Country Hits", newly updated and expanded to capture today's top recording artists and their biggest songs. Complete, authoritative chart information on the most popular songs and artists make this a great book for music fans, record collectors, industry professionals, and trivia lovers. Joel Whitburn is the leading authority on charted music and began collecting records in the 1950s, filing each one according to the position it reached on Billboard's charts. He went on to publish this information - and his business, "Record Research", was born. Today, he leads a team of chart researchers from his home base in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin.

JOEL WHITBURN, widely regarded as the finest authority on charted music, has written over 100 books based on Billboard charts for both the trade market and his own mail-order company, Record Research, in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin. Record Research began as a pastime and has since grown into a Billboard magazine licensee. The Billboard Book of Top 40 Country Hits and The Billboard Book of Top 40 R&B and Hip-Hop Hits are among Joel's other Billboard Books titles.
