Old Billboard Album Charts

[melody56]

Hi,

This is a longshot, but as they say "nothing ventured, nothing gained".

I live in England, and started buying the UK music papers in the mid-70's, and began collecting the charts they printed. These also included the "USA" charts, some were Billboard, others Cashbox. They were never the complete chart, just the top 30. 40 or 50. In the 80's, PC's and spreadsheets arrived, and I began my computerized collection of music charts. Eversince, I have been gradually building up this collection.

I'm currently trying to complete my collection of Billboard Album charts, and am missing…

Chart dated August 15, 1964

Stereo charts dated June 18 & July 13, 1963

1961 - charts of June 5, June 26, July 3, August 14, September 4

The stereo charts from 1959/1960

Anything before 1957.

If you have these, please get in touch - perhaps I have info you want, and we could swap.

I think if you have a subsciption to Billboard, you get an online password that allows you to access their archived charts. Although I'm not sure which charts are offered.

There are limits on the archives, many do not go back nearly that far
