Notes

  1. ↑ Until the December 1960 issue of Musikmarkt, the charts always bore the title of the previous month. The December 1960 issue therefore contained the charts for November 1960. With the January 1961 issue, however, this was changed and the charts were named after the current month, i.e. January 1961. For this reason, the charts for the month of December 1960 are missing.
  2. ↑ On January 1, 1965, a change was made to the period of chart publications. Charts are now published approximately every two weeks on the 1st and 15th of each month and not only approximately every four weeks on the 1st of each month.
