The original data was compiled from reference to the original weekly magazines and corrected using internet resources, such as Discogs, iTunes, Spotify and the Internet Archive amongst others. I am grateful to the support and assistance of numerous people, including Iain Moffatt for providing some of the track listings. The book is presented on an as-is basis. While every effort has been made to make sure it is free from defects I will not be held responsible if it does nasty things to your computer. Though it shouldn’t. But if it does, it’s not my fault.

Notes on the text As with any book of this nature there are mistakes inside its pages. I would be stupid to think that there were none. So, if you spot a mistake and let me know, I’ll correct it and you’ll get your name in the book. Drop me an email at [email protected] and I’ll check out the error, though I also welcome praise and criticism, both for the book and the layout of the book. As far as can be tested this book is virus free, though it may contain traces of nuts.

Introduction The New Musical Express may have begun the Singles chart (in 1952), but they where the last to the party in terms of creating an Album chart, only starting a Top 10 in 1962. Even then, albums would still chart on the main Singles chart, when sales we’re sufficiently large (Noticeably the Beatles and the Rolling Stones achieved this). Having said this though, NME was sampling a larger array of shops than the chart now considered the Official one fo the 1960’s, and so this chart – together with Melody Maker – are equally merits of the position of “National” chart for the 1960’s. The small chart size here was simply all that NME decided to produce, and indeed it would be November 1970 when the chart became a Top 30, staying as such until April 1983 when it became a Top 50, a size it retained, in NME at least, until they stopped compiling their own chart in 1988. But all that is for later volumes, as this forces on the swinging 60’s. 27 October 1962 was the date when the Beatles first charted in NME with “Love Me Do”, when the NME Albums chart was just 5 months old. By the end of the 1960’s, of their 12 albums 10 had been number 1 Hits (Only a “Best Of” and Yellow Submarine failed to hit the very top of the chart). Equally, the Beatles are clear winners in the Most Weeks On Chart Battle for the decade – well, if you exclude Original Soundtracks. Soundtracks have always been a staple of the charts, particularly during the 1960’s, taking the number 1 spot for every year of the decade – except 1964 (The Beatles) and 1965 (Bob Dylan). The Sound Of Music dominates the early album charts spending 219 weeks on the chart in the first chart run from release (1965) to dropping out (1969). This is the longest continuous chart run of the decade (followed by 125 weeks for West Side Story and 61 weeks for the Beatles Please Please Me and a Best of for the Beach Boys.) Hopefully this has whet your appetite for dive into the latest chart book and that you will enjoy this as much as I have in putting it together.

Album Track Listing Every track as listed on the album is presented here, in order. Discogs has been used and reference to the album back covers as much as possible to ensure accuracy. Later CD re-issues may have named tracks differently, or listed them in a different order or broken them down, so caution with these is required as the track listing relates to the version whose catalogue number is shown. The full artist is shown for any track where this differs from the main album credit. For many - but not all - Soundtrack or Cast albums, shown at the end of the book, individual artists are shown where it has been possible to identify who they where. This is not the case for all soundtracks as the cover does not always state performers. In some cases later CD re-issues have been used to determine the performer. Verifiable evidence of errors is gratefully received to [email protected], including durations of albums where none is shown, but do please take the above notes into account.

Durations

This volume is the first to also list the durations if the albums and so a word about how these are created is important. The database from which this book is derived contains the full album track listing for each album together with the duration of that particular track. To create the album duration the individual track times are added together, which means that the original LP duration could be a few seconds longer to account for silence between tracks. Equally, the duration of each track may itself be adjusted slightly as where a particular track ends can differ slightly depending upon who you consult. Here I am discussing specifically fade out times. I was unable to find any durations anywhere – or any recordings – of only one album for the 1960’s. This is “Mrs. Mills' Party”, so if anybody has the durations of the tracks I’d be most grateful for these to be supplied.
