WABC Weekly Charts: Volume II: 1965-1969

WABC, New York, was one of the most popular and influential Top 40 popular music AM radio stations in the 1960s and 1970s. This volume - which serves as a companion to the first installment covering the 1960-1964 period - reproduces the station's weekly record charts from 1965-1969. Like the other radio charts titles, my goal was to provide a convenient chronological compilation of weekly surveys with corrections of the considerable errors found in both the original sources and in translation to online sites. These radio charts – which exist in the public domain – can be found in a multitude of sources, including original published sheets distributed via retail outlets, mail inquiries, etc., notation of on-air broadcasts, back issues of area newspapers (where stations are located) and music trade periodicals, specialized reference books, and websites interested in historical documentation, most notably, Oldiesloon, musicradio77, and ARSA. I employed multiple sources in the compilation of each radio chart volume in order to provide the most accurate data possible.
