bvw Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 The singles chart was not born until Nov 1952. The early number 1s of the 50s were based on sheet music sales.The Number 1 single was:Frank Sinatra • Jo Stafford - "Goodnight Irene"I remember it well........... :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andsome Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 Surely top tens, fifties or hundreds or whatever, are completely pointless. I cannot see any point in buying a record because it happens to be in some chart or other. Surely the sensible thing is to buy it if YOU like it, not because quite a few other people do. Are you telling me that you pop fans buy everything that is in the top ten, just because it happens to be there? Does it really matter to you, that a tune HAS to be in the top whatever?
