VA - One Hit Wonders 1960 - 1979 (A Butterboy Compilation) (21 x CD's)
ONE HIT WONDERS - 1960, 1961, 1962,1963,1964, 1965,1966, 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970,1971,1972, 1973, 1974, 1975, 1976, 1977, 1978 &1979
This starts the 20 sets of One Hit Wonders. A set for each year from 1960 to 1979. For these One Hit Wonders I have referenced the Tunecaster Music Encyclopedia and Chart Archive to identify songs which are the most popular by an artist. These One Hit Wonders are included if the artist had exactly one song that made the pop or rock top 20. No artist can be considered a One Hit Wonder who made the top 20 twice. This strict definition may create some strange results where superstar side projects with temporary or transient names may be technical One Hit Wonders.

Brilliant! Thanks a lot!
ReplyDeleteButter Thank you for a Great Up-coming Play List of memories.
ReplyDeleteHaving often described the Butterboy suggestions for me as unsurpassable, then I actually need another superlative for this very fine collection, but I'll just leave it at my repeated exclamation: Thank you, very much appreciated!
ReplyDeleteYet another fantastic collection by the best compiler around.....surprised to see T.Rex here though..they had at least 10 Top 10's in the 70's I think, including at least 2 no.1's
ReplyDeletebig thank you KING from Aussie
ReplyDeleteAmazing and thanks! Status Quo aren’t one hit wonders though!
ReplyDeleteThis wondrous 20 Volume Collection from Butterboy is actually a 21 CD Set because 1963 has two CD's worth of tunes (no complaints about that!). Perhaps one day BB will find the time to expand the range on these or other years. Anyway, this and the previous post of One-Hit Wonders I consider essential and are two of my most enjoyed collections from Butterboy, although it really is hard to pick as there are just so many great and perfectly assembled compilations that BB has cultivated. So much intelligence and thought goes into them. With BB.. it's just an on-going "Thank You" for all of it.. the musical education, the thought-provoking comps, and of course.. all of the memorable musical melodies.. the magical elixir of life!
ReplyDeleteThanks once again for sharing some amazing compilations. I can't wait to dive into them.
ReplyDeleteAnother epic undertaking, thank you! So many great tunes (and so many awful ones)! Can't wait to start dipping into this!
ReplyDeleteImpressive Butterboy . . . ty very much!
ReplyDeleteI've built a pretty extensive '70s library over the years. I've got most of everything that's on these discs. But if I didn't have those songs and wanted to build a '70s library, this would be the place to start! There's something about one-hit wonders that seem to reflect its times better than, say, hearing "Hotel California" for the 5,000th time. "Hotel California" may as well be an '80s or '90s song, since I heard it then about as many times as I did in the '70s. But Johnny Paycheck's Take This Job and Shove It? THAT'S the '70s! That's me playing it on the Pizza Hut jukebox while me and my 7th grade pals wreck the lunch buffet!
ReplyDeleteT.Rex? A One Hit Wonder,Sorry BB But What Planet Are We On
ReplyDeleteT.Rex Were The Supergroup Of The 70's
Butterboy defined the parameters....Top 20 is where ya gotta be to have a "Hit" and T-Rex only did it once. Yes, a lot of incredible music, hits to us both, but not Top 20.

DeleteNot sure where you live Nancy but in The UK T.Rex were massive in the early 70's...they had 2 no.1's and 11 top 10's...hardly one hit wonders!!!
DeleteHi Butterboy,
ReplyDeletethanks for all the late posts.
You're absolutely tireless and enthusiastic. A lot of comps (some officials and some of your own) to listen to. A lot of work ahead :-)
Thanks for all you give to us (I've told you this before but never is enough)
Cheers
IT'S AN AVALANCHE!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteBB, check it...http://opdk2.blogspot.com/2020/08/bob-marley-ultra-rarities.html
ReplyDeleteWould you believe that the same man sang lead vocals on at least five of these songs? Tony Burrows, King of the One-Hit Wonders sang on Edison Lighthouse's "Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes)", White Plains' "My Baby Loves Lovin'", The Pipkins' "Gimme Dat Ding", The First Class' "Beach Baby" and The Brotherhood of Man's "United We Stand". Wow.
ReplyDeleteHi Ice X.
DeleteIf your interested. There is a whole album dedicated to Tony Burrows here.

ReplyDeleteYo B.B.
ReplyDeleteI know... "There's a $5.00 fine for whining" but..
Your 1960, track 12 is not the radio play/45 version of Mule Skinner Blues by the Fendermen
and as an aside on track 11 Alley-Oop I replaced the version by Dante & The Evergreens (which got to #16) with the Hollywood Argyles version that got to #1 that year and was also a one hit wonder.
...Not complaining, just commenting for those of your fans that didn't live through it and thus wouldn't know.
thank you Aussie
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome, Aussie.
DeleteCheers.
Found this here after seeing it in an older deleted links posting. Great stuff. Many thank and it brings back many happy memories!
ReplyDeleteHi Pez49,
DeleteI am glad you found what you were looking for.
Cheers.
I am suitably blown away. Thanks a million BB.
ReplyDeleteHi Phillip,
DeleteThis was a huge undertaking but I am glad it is still popular.
So many wonderful tracks that escape the radar. Enjoy!
Cheers.
Great selection. Have you ever heard Acrobat and Fantastic Voyage cds of the British Hit Parade. I was unsure of the sound quality as otherwise it looks a good buy.
ReplyDeleteHi Roger.
DeleteThank you.
whilst I have many Fantastic Voyage releases, I don't have British Hit Parade.
Cheers.
Just catching up but when was 'Rhythm of the Rain' done - it's not as bad as many re-recordings? Good collection as usual!
ReplyDeleteThanks Paul.
DeleteI thought the version I used was the TimeLife AM Gold 1963 set, but on closer listen I believe it to be from VA - The American Invasion [1999].
The compilation posted is great set to listen to any time.
Cheers.
