Billboard Year-End Hot 100 charts. Note
that from 1956 to 1958, Billboard only compiled top 50 charts, and
from 1950 to 1955, they compiled only top 30 charts. What is now the
Hot 100 existed for nearly fifteen years as numerous charts, tracking
and ranking the most popular singles of the day in several areas.
The methods and policies by which this data is obtained and compiled
have changed many times throughout the chart's history. Billboard
has also changed its Hot 100 policy regarding "two-sided singles"
several times. During periods in which singles sales were strong,
the Hot 100 allowed both sides of a single (A-side and B-side) to
chart together (occupying the same position), provided that both sides
were receiving significant radio airplay. Pre-Hot 100 charts listed
A-and-B-sides together. For more detailed information on how the Billboard
compiled the charts, see the Wikipedia article "Billboard
Hot 100". NOTE: We do NOT
sell compilations of any of these songs, nor are we aware of anyone
who makes even a Top 25 compilation of each year. However, many of
the songs are available from iTunes. A link is provided for those
songs so you can order them through the iTunes Store if desired.
