Abstract Hit Records, 1950-1975 references nearly 6,000 popular songs that were featured on the Top-40 charts during that period. Entries list song title and variants, writer, artist, label, and peak position on and date of entry onto the charts. Also provided are two long indexes that allow the user to find every song written or recorded by a given composer or artist. This resource greatly simplifies the process of discovering which composers provided songs for a particular artist, and which composers assisted one another. This reference will be of great value to both the serious researcher and the nostalgic browser.
