~~i have a billboard top 100 reference (joel whitburn)
book 1955-1990. i got it for TEN dollars at a used
bookstore!! SCORE!! i also got its companion top
albums or something for 10 dollars as well, although i
RARELY look at that. but the top 100 book. oh i LOVE
it. the times i've had with it. pre-internet AND
post internet. there's really not a reference that
i've found that beats it. the trivia games you can
play with it...("name all the top ten hits from elton
john", "how many top 100 hits did pink floyd have?")
excellent. just excellent.
does anyone know where i can get an update for the
former book?? i'd like to get the rest of the years
filled in, but 1. i'd like it to be top 100., 2. i'd
like it to be hardcover, and 3. i'd like it not to be
100 dollars or something. i was led to believe those
books initially were quite spendy when we bought them
for the college station i worked for...
any details, kids?
