Most
of the data presented comes from the 'Record Retailer' (Music Week) Top
50 chart which began listing on 10th March 1960. Prior to that, for the
first nine weeks of 1960, the NME (New Musical Express) chart is used, but
which only listed the Top 30. Where an entry was a 'double A' side, both tracks have been listed separately for ease of search and view, so the number of tracks listed for each artist is not necessarily the number of separate record hits. You can easily check the artist's 'official discography' if you need further information. Artists are listed alphabetically by the first letter of the artist's name ( excluding 'A' and 'The' ). Where a title appears to be repeated, it is actually a different release with the same title. Re-releases and re-entries are NOT included although they ARE in the calculated statistics. The year given is the year in the Sixties where the original release first featured in the record chart (some of the 1960 entries were released in 1959) and the position stated indicates the highest the record achieved at ANY time on the Sixties charts. For the purposes of these chart statistics the chart date has been taken as the Saturday of the week in which the chart was published. In weeks where no chart was published, the previous week's chart has been used. For reference, chart publication dates were as follows:
