Anyone out there got a complete set of Billboard 1967-1971 ? Nothing to do with the BB.  Smiley

Also, someone once kindly directed me to a site that had the complete UK EP charts (amongst others) for the 60s and I'd dearly like to find that one again. Sorry ? No, of course I didn't bookmark it.

This site goes from 59-67. Scroll over "Complete UK EP Charts" and pick your month and year.

The Billboard archive used to be available and searchable through Google News and their archive search, but for some crazy reason they eliminated the feature where you could access and search archived newspapers and magazines directly. As in the difference between hitting a few icons and being taken directly to the full Billboard archive where you could both search and browse anything there versus having to enter and navigate through a bunch of searches and screens to find just one issue.

Check Google, I know there is probably a way to access the Billboard issue archive again, but perhaps they even eliminated that feature since I last checked.

Thanks, but the Billboard archive for the period I'm interested in isn't complete. I checked.  Smiley

Here's how to search what they have:

I'll bookmark that! I knew some issues were missing from the 60's when I was searching but didn't realize how many. I remember the last time I tried to search the newspaper archives too, Google changed their setup and made it far less user-friendly for whatever reason.
