September 13, 201113 yr We need not just look at Acts who were in the first Singles Chart. An Act, who was in the Top 10 in 1960, would gain the 'Chart Span' Record, if they had a Top 10 Single, or Album, in 2020, or 2021. (That qualifies Elvis Presley, Cliff Richard, The Shadows, & so on). Just as The Beatles would take that Chart Record, if they had a Top 10 Single or Album, in, (say), February 2023. (1963 - 2023 = a 60 Year Top 10 Chart Span. The 'Please Please Me' Single, went into the Top 10, in February 1963). So, it isn't just Acts, who were in the first Singles Chart, who can take the Chart Span Record. I know, but my post was specifically about the artists in the first singles chart.
