The Virgin Book of Top 40 Charts Reviews
The ideal Christmas gift for all pop music buffs. A totally fascinating read. * Scunthorpe Telegraph *
Granted, a tome which runs to over 1000 pages with every Top 40 Singles Chart from 1960 to present day is not going to be everyone's cup of tea but for me it's heaven * Blackpool Gazette *
Hard to put down * The Times *
