This collection celebrates another notable chart event in January 1959, when Billboard it's 1000th chart since the launch of the record sales chart in July 1940, which morphed over the years from Best Sellers in Stores Top 10 into the Top 100 and the Hot 100. This collection comprises just about all the records in the Billboard Hot 100 of that week (one record is unavailable for copyright reasons) and it provides a fascinating and evocative snapshot of the music scene at what was a dynamic and transitional time as the post-rock 'n' roll era headed towards another cataclysmic musical decade. It's a window onto a vibrant and exciting musical environment and includes a number of unfamiliar names and recordings of which even pop enthusiasts may not be too aware, and which will be welcome additions to their collections. It contains a 12,000+ word booklet featuring background notes on every record as well as full discographical and chart information.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Browns - the Three Bells\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Santo ;
