Posted May 23, 200619 yr The Irish music magazine Hot Press has just published its 2006 Yearbook and inside it has many of the countries year end charts for 2005. It has the following charts: Top 50 Albums, Top 50 Singles, Top 50 Irish Albums, Top 50 Irish Singles, Top 50 Selling Artists, Top 50 DVDs, Top 10 Irish DVDs, Top 50 Music DVDs, Top 10 Irish Music DVDs, Airplay Top 30s (All Artists and Irish Artists lists) and Top 10 reach charts for both, Top 25 RTE TV shows, Top 20 National radio shows, Top 20 Regional radio shows. Plus all albums achieving Gold, Platinum or multi-platinum status during 2005 are listed. The charts are the same as the ones on the IRMA website only slightly longer - and in the case of the album Top 50s excluding compilations. The book seems to be aimed more at the music business (ie: record shops, printed media, local radio) and therefore carries a slightly high price tag of 20 Euros (£14) though a number of newsagents are stocking it.
