I’ve reflected much on whether I should show the weekending date or MM publication date in this thread. From January 2 to July 16,1960 Melody Maker showed on their chart pages both of them. They have dropped printing w/e date since the issue of July 23,1960. The only date has remained available since then is the publication one.
I was in some doubt about the way I should follow.
The charts I’ve already posted are completely based on survey week, ignoring the cover date.
I was confused by the fact that the Charts I’ve been posting are out of sync with the Record Retailers’ and NME charts. Then I’ve noticed that Kingofskiffle uses publication dates on his “Melody Maker Album Charts” thread. So I ‘ve decided to follow his example.
Henceforth I will go one week ahead. And you should do the same with the previous charts if you were copying them after me.
Thus, the chart which I posted first as “week ending December 30, 1961” has turned into:

MM did not publish a chart on 29th December. Instead of weekly chart have printed “The Year’s Top Thirty” (the thirty best- selling singles of 1962). They have been worked out on the basis of points awarded to each record for its chart placings.
I can post them here as well if you'll express a wish.

Actually MM did not print LW positions for the Chart of January 5,1963 because of absence of the one last week at all. So i've took a volitional decision and transfered LW data from the previous chart of weekending December 22,1962.

Sorry, thaslayerslove...but i can't catch any relationship between your post and my thread. Even more so there was no reason to post it twice.

[thaslayerslove]

Apologies for posting twice clearly an accident

as to why i linked it: you list the week by weeks singles charts from the melody maker while the link lists week by weeks singles and album charts from the nme

i felt people intrested in melody maker week by week charts would also be intrested in what was happening in the nme charts for the corrosponding weeks

hope this explains my intentions and again for posting twice

Just some notable facts.
As Alan Smith has already noted "Do You Want to Know A Secret?" by Billy J. Kramer is only a No2 `Officially` but it was a No1 on every other chart at the time (MM, NME, Disc, Pop Weekly and Pick Of The Pops).
Though the Cascades had a relatively long chart carrier with Shy Girl on MM charts (50-35-32-34-37), they have never reached Record Retailer’s TOP50 (The one which BHS use).
Lesley Gore and The Mike Cotton's Jazzmen both charted on MM TOP50 two weeks before they have achieved the same on RR’s chart.
By the way, one of the most interesting things about “It’s My Party” and some of Lesley's follow-ups is that the arranger/producer on most of these early sessions was none other than Quincy Jones!
