  1. Thank you Butterboy for this great compilation. I believe you posted something similar for years going at least into the early 1970s, but using your search function, I can not find them. Could you show me how to search properly or else re-up them if they are not available? Thanks again.

    1. Hi tsi&hrjs.
      You can find everything in the archive links on the right side of the main page. The series is available here. The individual monthly posts have been condensed into a single post for 1961, 1963, and 1966. For 1968, there are two more months before they will be collated into a single post.
      For your convenience you can find them here: https://butterboycompilations.blogspot.com/search/label/In%20The%20Charts%20Series
      Cheers.

  2. Thanks for these BB. I always look forward to the songs I have never heard, there are several here.
    Please continue with the sixties I would love over time to see your picks for the missing years.

    1. Thanks, lemonflag.
      I’m delighted to hear you’re enjoying this series! I intentionally avoid the biggest hits since they’re easily accessible. Instead, I focus on tracks that had brief moments of chart success or flew under the radar. I find it more intriguing to showcase these hidden gems.
      Cheers.
