"I don't think the charts existed the year I was born!"
The "Official UK Singles Chart" goes back to 1952 now. If you type that phrase into google, the correct site should be your first search result.
You can then enter any date you wish using the calendar button.

"I don't think the charts existed the year I was born!
the charts started in 1952  "
To be fair to him, the Official charts started in 1969. Before that was a plethora of music magazine, bbc and other charts. The Official site only amalgamated all these to form an 'official' chart for 1952-1969 a few years ago. |
