I saw and I searched it on Google that there's no Bubbling Under Hot 100 listings from June 1, 1959 to August 24, 1985 and from December 5, 1992 to August 8, 2012. :( Please help to find the Bubbling Hot 100 from 1960 to 2012? For the Bubbling Under Hot 100 charts from August 15, 2012 to November 29, 2014, see The Bubbling Under Chart and for Bubbling Under Hot 100 from December 6, 2014 to present, see Bubbling Under 2015.

The 1992 charts up to the point where I started posting them in 2012 is available on billboard.biz archives. There are a coupl,e magazine archive sites where you can get them one chart at a time.

Go to Billboard Magazine on Google Books. There are plenty of issues that feature the Bubbling Under Charts for those years, they just aren't prominent. They look more like articles or adverts than full-fledged charts.

There was a period from the late 80s to the early 90s where there was no Bubbling Under chart published, so, sadly, that information doesn't exist.

Yeah, that 1985-1992 period was a farce. The Chart Director said that the Bubbling Under chart was pointless because all the hits that were meaningful were already entering the Hot 100. WTH? There were SO many classic r&b / dance / rock songs that could have landed in the #101 - #125 range.

When you look at the sheer volume of #1 R&B singles from the late 80s that didn't chart on the Hot 100 you realize how useful the Bubbling Under chart would have been during that time. Look at the early 80s; songs like Vanity 6's "Nasty Girl" and George Clinton's classic "Atomic Dog" bubbled under and I'd say they were pretty "meaningful".
